And finally, for the meat-lovers, these smoky burgers with optional bacon provide a perfect tincture of the South!
Ingredients
MARINADE
4 tbsp tomato ketchup
4 tbsp brown sauce
Splash chilli sauce (optional)
2 tsp clear honey
2 garlic cloves, crushed
4 boneless & skinless chicken breasts
4 bacon rashers (optional)
4 large burger buns, lettuce sliced in half, tomato and red onion, to serve
Directions
Make marinade by mixing marinade ingredients together in a large bowl
Put a few spoonfuls of this aside for a sauce
Slice halfway into the thickest part of each breast and open ‘like a book’ (really like this phrasing from BBC Good Food!)
Flatten each breast down slightly
Toss each into marinade bowl and coat, then chill for as long as you are able to.
Barbeque chicken until completely cooked through (around 10 minutes) turning so it doesn’t burn but is nicely charred and sticky
At the same time, cook the bacon and toast the buns (if using)
Assemble burgers with as many adornments as required and dollop some of the leftover uncooked marinade on the side as a sauce.
