Ingredients
Scale
- 500g chicken breast, diced
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1/2 cup cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup mayonnaise
- 1 tbsp hot sauce (adjust to taste)
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 8 soft burger buns
Instructions
- Step 1: In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the diced chicken breast until fully cooked and browned, about 6-8 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
- Step 2: In a mixing bowl, combine the cooked chicken, shredded cheddar cheese, cream cheese, mayonnaise, hot sauce, and garlic powder. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
- Step 3: Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F). Line a baking tray with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
- Step 4: Slice the soft burger buns in half and place the bottom halves on the prepared baking tray. Spoon generous amounts of the cheesy chicken mixture onto each bun.
- Step 5: Place the top halves of the buns on top of the filling and bake in the preheated oven for about 10-12 minutes, or until the buns are golden brown and the cheese is melted.
- Step 6: Remove from the oven, let cool slightly, and serve warm as delicious Cheesy Dynamite Chicken Buns!
Notes
- For optimal storage, keep any leftover Cheesy Dynamite Chicken Buns in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days to maintain freshness.
- When reheating, place the buns in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for about 5-7 minutes to restore their crispiness while ensuring the filling is warmed through.
- These buns pair wonderfully with a side of crispy fries or a fresh salad for a delightful meal that balances flavors and textures.
- For an extra kick, consider adding diced jalapeños or your favorite hot sauce directly into the cheesy chicken mixture before assembling the buns to amplify the dynamite flavor!
