Grilled Buffalo Chicken Burger & Ranch Potatoes

Buffalo and ranch seem to go together like peanut butter and jelly. A classic flavor combo that, even if one may not like spicy food, everyone seems to love. The ranch provides a nice creamy, cooling element to any buffalo style recipe, like our Grilled Buffalo Chicken Burger.

For this recipe, I doubled up on the ranch flavoring a bit. I use ranch dressing on the burger and season the potatoes with a dry ranch packet! My daughter, who steers clear of dinner if there is any sign of spicy, absolutely loves this grilled buffalo chicken.

What you need to get started (more details in the recipe card below) :

  • 1 boneless skinless chicken breast (serves 2)
  • Buffalo wing sauce
  • Ranch dressing
  • Kaiser Rolls
  • Baby red potatoes
  • Green onion
  • 1 Ranch seasoning packet
  • Salt & Pepper
  • Olive oil
  • A hot grill!

Here is how to make it: 

Cut the potatoes into thick slices, cut green onion into three inch pieces. Skewer alternating potato and green onion. See our tip below for the two best ways to skewer raw potato.

Season the chicken and potato skewers with a drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper. Sprinkle the ranch seasoning onto the potato skewers.

Preheat grill on medium high until it reaches 500ºF. Place skewers on 5 minutes before chicken.

Flip skewers and move to the opposite side of the grill (off of direct flame, where the temperature is lower).

Add the chicken on the hottest spot of the grill over flames to get a nice sear. Grill for about 3-4 minutes. Flip.

Brush with buffalo sauce. Grill 3-4 more minutes. Flip and brush with sauce. Finish grilling until chicken reaches 165ºF internal temperature and juices run clear.

Give the buns a quick toast and remove everything from the grill.

Home Chef Tip: I use a large sheet pan to carry everything back into the house from the grill. It makes the job so much easier!

Let the chicken rest while you prepare to build your burgers. To assemble your grilled buffalo chicken burgers, start by adding ranch to one bun half and buffalo sauce to the other.

After the chicken has rested, slice into strips.

Place chicken on bun with lettuce and tomato (optional), serve with grilled ranch seasoned potatoes and enjoy!

Home Chef Tip: Take caution when skewering raw potato. I use one of two methods to make sure my hands and fingers are clear of the sharp skewer tip:

  • Hold hand palm up, potato in between your thumb and first finger. This will ensure the skewer should slide right past your hand and fingers.

  • Stand the potato slice up on it’s side on a cutting board. Skewer down through the top until you hit the board. Hold upright and continue pushing potato down the skewer.

If you are making this grilled buffalo chicken for a big crowd, I suggest shredding all of the chicken (kind of like pulled pork would be), then tossing it in more buffalo sauce. Serve in a large bowl with buns, lettuce, and tomato on the side and let your guests build their own!

I hope you enjoyed this recipe, now get to grilling!

Notes

Home Chef Tip: To safely skewer raw potato slices, hold potato between thumb and first finger with palm facing upward. Slide skewer through, the end will go right past fingers and hand. OR Place potato slice on a cutting board, on it's side. Stick skewer through the top until you hit the board. Lift up and continue to push potato down the skewer.
