  2. In a large mixing bowl, combine 1 pound of ground chicken with 2 tablespoons of ranch seasoning and 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese. Mix gently and shape into 4 equal patties.
  3. Heat a grill or skillet to medium-high heat and cook the patties for 5–7 minutes per side, until their internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
  4. Assemble the burgers by placing each patty on the bottom half of a toasted bun. Layer the crispy bacon, lettuce, sliced tomatoes, and drizzle with ranch dressing before adding the top bun.
