Chicken and Bacon Burgers
3 servings
50 minutes
Chicken and bacon burgers are the true embodiment of American cuisine, combining the tenderness of chicken fillet with the spiciness of crispy bacon. Historically, the combination of meat and bun became popular in the early 20th century when hamburgers won the hearts of millions. In this version, the lightness of chicken is balanced by the rich flavor of bacon, while a creamy mustard sauce adds a special softness to the dish. Crispy buns infused with the aroma of grilled meat, fresh lettuce leaves, and juicy tomato slices create a harmonious ensemble of textures. An ideal choice for a quick and hearty dinner, especially if you want to add a bit of American flair to your diet!

Fry the bacon on both sides in a dry pan, then fry the chicken breast here by adding a little oil, 2 minutes on each side. To prevent the bacon from burning, it can be placed on top of the chicken while frying (it will absorb the aroma of the bacon). The inside of the breast should remain juicy.

Spread sauce on each half of the bun. On the lower sauced part, place salad, then chicken breast and bacon. On the top, add salad and tomato slices. Carefully join both parts and secure with a skewer for strength.
