Super Spicy Shredded Chicken Burgers
If you’re a fan of spicy chicken burgers, then you’ll love this slow cooker recipe! These burgers are not for the faint-hearted, as they pack a punch with every bite. The combination of tender and juicy chicken breast with the fiery heat of your favourite hot sauce is a match made in heaven. Some people may call this a spicy buffalo chicken recipe, but whatever you call it get ready to spice up your life!
One of the best things about this recipe is how few ingredients you need to make it. With just six simple ingredients, you can create a mouth-watering burger that’s bursting with flavour. All you need is chicken breast, Frank’s Hot Sauce (or any hot sauce of your choice), pickle juice, butter, cayenne, and garlic. That’s it!
These ingredients are all combined in the slow cooker, where the chicken is cooked on low for 3-4 hours or on high for 6-7 hours. Once the chicken is tender and cooked through, it’s shredded and ready to be loaded into brioche burger buns.
In our opinion, no spicy burger is compete without the tangy crunch of pickles. However, we know that may divide opinion. You could add any extras or or sauces of your choice. We also put a little bit of Mayo on our toasted buns, but you could add cheese, crispy onions, blue cheese sauce, mustard… the list goes on!
