Cajun Chicken Burger

This has been another favorite grilling recipe this summer, these burgers have a lovely mild curry flavor.

Cajun Chicken Burgers



Ingredients:
1 tablespoon ground cumin
1 tablespoon ground coriander
1 tablespoon paprika
Black pepper, to taste
2 skinless, boneless chicken breasts
3 slices bacon, cut in half
2 slices Swiss cheese
2 Kaiser rolls
Mayonnaise
1 avocado, peeled, pitted, and sliced.
2 handfuls of mixed greens
Directions:
  • Pre-heat BBQ to low
  • On a small plate mix together cumin, coriander, paprika, and black pepper.
  • Brush a piece of heavy-duty foil with a little olive oil. Cover chicken with plastic wrap and beat with a meat mallet or rolling pin until slightly flattened. Brush chicken with olive oil, and dip in the spice mix until coated, then place on foil.
  • Take another piece of foil, fold up the edges to make a small baking tray and add the bacon.
  • Put chicken and bacon on grill and cook for about 15 – 20 minutes, (grills vary so cook to desired doneness), bacon should be cooked until crisp.
  • Place cheese slices on top of chicken until cheese begins to melt. Toast buns at the same time.
  • Spread buns with mayo and top with the cheesy chicken and bacon. You can also add the salad greens and avocado to the buns if you like, but I prefer my salad on the side.

This burger sounds like a great combination of flavors and all the condiments you suggest to go with it. Nothing like a grilled hamburger! Thanks...

I was literally just thinking that I haven't had swiss cheese in a long while. Must be fate! I always cut my bacon in half before cooking it! How utterly cool that you cooked the bacon on the grill, too. I love curry, so I'm sure I'd pick up on the mild curry flavor here. YUM!
