FULLY LOADED CAJUN CHICKEN BURGERS

Steps:

• Mix the seasoning ingredients together with a good grinding of black pepper and a sprinkling of salt, then set aside in a large dish. Heat grill to high. On a board, flatten out the chicken slightly, then drizzle half the oil over and toss in the seasoning until completely coated. Heat the remaining oil in a large frying pan, sizzle the chicken for 5 mins on each side until firm, push to one side of the pan, then fry the bacon for a few mins until cooked.
• While the chicken is cooking, halve, stone, peel and slice the avocados, and toast the cut sides of the buns. Cover the tops of the buns with cheese, then grill until melted.
• To assemble the burgers, spread the buns with mayonnaise if you want, top with a handful of spinach, then a rasher of bacon. To keep the avocado in place, slice the chicken, then alternate between a slice of chicken and avocado. Top with the bun, press down lightly and serve.

CAJUN CHICKEN

Steps:

• In a large shallow dish, mix the oil, Cajun seasoning, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, and lemon pepper. Place the chicken in the dish, and turn to coat with the mixture. Cover, and refrigerate for 1/2 hour.
• Preheat the grill for high heat.
• Lightly oil the grill grate. Drain chicken, and discard marinade. Place chicken on hot grill and cook for 6 to 8 minutes on each side, or until juices run clear.

PINEAPPLE-TERIYAKI CHICKEN BURGERS

Steps:

• Mix ground chicken, bell pepper, pineapple, garlic, 2 tablespoons teriyaki sauce, green onion, salt, and ginger together in a bowl. Make 6 equally portioned balls out of the mixture.
• Heat a large cast iron or ceramic nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add avocado oil to the hot skillet and heat for 3 minutes. Place 2 to 3 balls into the skillet and flatten out with a spatula; cook until golden brown and cooked through, about 5 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C). Remove from the skillet and repeat to cook remaining burgers.
• Place burgers on buns with lettuce, tomato, mayonnaise, ketchup, and more teriyaki sauce if desired.
