CHICKEN CAESAR BURGERS
Steps:
- In a bowl, combine the ground chicken, finely chopped garlic, anchovies, a handful of the cheese, a pinch of salt, a generous amount of pepper, the Worcestershire, parsley, and lemon zest. Score the mixture and form 4 oval, rather than round, patties.
- Heat a large nonstick skillet with 1 tablespoon of the EVOO, once around the pan, over medium-high heat. When hot, add the chicken patties and cook for 3 to 4 minutes on each side.
- Preheat the broiler and toast the rolls on a cookie sheet or broiler pan. When they are lightly golden in color, remove the sheet from the oven and rub the breads with the cracked garlic clove. Drizzle the bread with EVOO and sprinkle with the remaining handful of cheese. Return the sheet to the broiler for another 30 seconds, then remove it and let it stand.
- In a large bowl, combine the Dijon, lemon juice, and the remaining 3 tablespoons of EVOO with salt and pepper. Toss the romaine in the dressing.
- Place the patties on the roll bottoms and top them with a pile of dressed romaine, sliced tomatoes, and the roll tops. Serve the burgers with chips alongside.
Tips:
- Brine the chicken breasts for at least 30 minutes before cooking. This will help to keep them moist and flavorful. - Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the chicken is cooked through to an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit. - Toast the buns before assembling the burgers. This will help to keep them from getting soggy. - Serve the burgers immediately with your favorite toppings.Conclusion:
