Place aside to cool. Combine chicken and vegetable mixture to form into a patty, season both sides with pepper.

• Saute patties in small amount of olive oil about 4 minutes / side or until done. Place burger on bun and top with avocado slices and lettuce.
• **Chipotle pepper in adobo sauce- comes in a small can in the International foods aisle of the grocery. Fish out needed peppers with a little sauce, chop and add to recipe. Freeze the rest of the can contents in a freezer ziplock bag. Whenever you need some, you can just break off a chunk and add it to your recipe (like chili, tacos, etc).

Steps:

• Put the chicken breast between two pieces of cling film and bash with a rolling pin or pan to about 1cm thick. Mix the chipotle paste with half the lime juice and spread over the chicken.
• Heat a griddle pan over a high heat. Once hot, cook the chicken for 3 mins each side until cooked through, adding the cheese for the final 2 mins of cooking. Add the bun, cut-side down, to the griddle pan to toast lightly. Season the chicken.
• Meanwhile, mash the avocado with the remaining lime juice. Stir in the cherry tomatoes, jalapeño and garlic, and season with a little salt. Spread over the base of the bun, then add the chicken followed by the top of the bun.

Steps:

• MAKE THE SPREAD: Stir the ingredients together in a bowl.
• MAKE THE SANDWICH: Coat each slice of toast with the chipotle spread, to taste. You may have some left over. Divide the chicken between two slices of toast, placing the slices in a single layer on top of the spread. Top with the bacon slices and a single layer of tomato slices. Cover with lettuce leaves and then the remaining slices of toast, spread side down.
• Press the tops of the sandwiches down firmly. Using a serrated knife, cut through the sandwiches on the diagonal, then cut through on the diagonal in the opposite direction. Each sandwich will have 4 wedges. Place a toothpick in each of the wedges and serve.
• Add a quick side salad to make a satisfying meal.

• Hot: When you can hold your hand there for 1 to 2 seconds
• Medium-hot: 3 to 4 seconds
• Low: 5 to 6 seconds
• If using a gas grill, preheat burners on high, covered, 10 minutes, then, if necessary, reduce to heat specified in recipe.
