Ranch Chicken Patties

Recipe #187832 | 15 min | 5 min prep | SERVES 4 (Change Servings)

RECIPE BY: Aggiezoey

I got this recipe from a friend of mine who says she got it from an old Betty Crocker book, I think. Anyway, it is so easy and good. She says that it reheats well and is good cold. Fast and easy recipe!

Ingredients

  • 10 ounces canned chicken, chunk
  • 1/2 cup ranch dressing
  • 1 egg
  • cup breadcrumbs
  • Directions

    1. 1
      NOTE - my cans of chicken are 13 ounce cans so I had to use a couple extra tablespoons of dressing.
    2. 2
      In one bowl, mix the egg and ranch dressing together.
    3. 3
      In another bowl mix the chicken and bread crumbs.
    4. 4
      Add the dressing mix to the chicken mixture - stir well. If it seems a bit too dry add a tablespoon at a time of more ranch dressing. The mixture should be just moist enough to bring together into a patty that holds well.
    5. 5
      Use your hands to mold into patties -- mine made about 5 patties -- depends on the size you want.
    6. 6
      In a skillet with a small amount of oil, brown the patties -- about 4-5 minutes per side on medium to medium high heat. You want to be sure the middle gets cooked and the outsides get nice and brown.
    7. 7
      Refrigerates well. I think it might freeze well, too, but I haven't tried it yet.

    As written, I found these to be suprisingly bland- I expected more flavor with that much ranch dressing. Topped with buffalo sauce and cheese, though, they turned into a nice lunch sandwich for me. Neither my husband or 3 year-old DD liked these, though, so I don't think I'll try them again. Thanks for sharing!

    These were VERY good!!I doubled the recipe and came out with 8 large patties that I served on sandwich rolls with Munster cheese. Very easy to put together(I mixed everything in 1 bowl)and they cooked up fast for a quick dinner. Thanks for posting!!!

    These were great and definitely a good, cheap, weekday meal. I added pan-fried zucchini to the mixture, as well as salt and pepper to taste. I also used fat free ranch dressing, and less of it than the recipe called for. This was a good, fast meal that I'll definitely be making again. Thanks!

    Fantastic! I had to double the recipe on the next batch. My family loved it. Here in Cajun Land we use alot of spices, so I added Cajun Seasoning,chopped onion tops and a little white diced onion to the mix. Absolutely a winner with my family even more. I also know that at this time, this is the only recipe known to use canned chicken. That in itself is a time saver. I have passed the recipe on to some relatives. Thanks.
