In a large bowl, combine ground chicken, cheddar, ranch seasoning, breadcrumbs, egg, garlic powder, and black pepper. Mix until just combined.

Form mixture into 4 equal patties.

Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat or preheat grill.

Cook patties 5–6 minutes per side until golden and cooked through (internal temp 165°F/74°C).

Toast buns if desired.

Assemble burgers with patties and toppings, drizzle with extra ranch dressing if you like. Serve immediately.

Swap cheddar for Monterey Jack or pepper jack for different flavor profiles.

Use gluten-free breadcrumbs or crackers to make gluten-free.

Add cayenne pepper for extra heat or make your own ranch seasoning.

Serve bunless on lettuce wraps for a low-carb option.
