Ingredients

2 teaspoons vegetable or olive oil, plus more for drizzling
4 slices Canadian bacon
2 pounds ground chicken breast
2 teaspoons sweet paprika, eyeball it in your palm
2 teaspoons poultry seasoning
2 teaspoons grill seasoning blend (recommended: Montreal Steak Seasoning) or salt and pepper
1 shallot, finely chopped
4 deli slices Swiss cheese
2/3 cup mayonnaise or reduced fat mayonnaise, eyeball it
3 rounded tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons freshly chopped tarragon leaves, 4 sprigs
4 kaiser rolls or sandwich size sour dough English muffins, split and toasted
8 leaves leaf lettuce
1 vine ripe tomato, thinly sliced

Directions

Preheat grill pan, nonstick griddle, large nonstick skillet or table top electric grill to medium high heat.

Add 2 tablespoons of oil and Canadian bacon. Warm bacon and caramelize it at edges, 1 to 2 minutes on each side. Remove to a piece of foil. Fold foil over loosely to keep warm.

Combine chicken, paprika, poultry seasoning, grill seasoning, shallot. Score meat with the side of your hand to separate into 4 equal amounts. Make 4 large patties, 3/4 to 1 inch thick. Drizzle patties with oil and place on hot grill pan, griddle or in skillet. Cook 5 minutes on each side, until chicken is cooked through.

Top patties with reserved cooked Canadian bacon and Swiss cheese. Fold each slice of cheese in half to fit the burger. Cover loosely with tin foil. Turn off pan and let cheese melt, 2 minutes.

Combine mayonnaise, mustard, tarragon. Slather bun tops or English tops with sauce. Place Cordon Bleu burgers on bun bottoms and top with lettuce and tomato. Put bun or muffin tops in place. Serve with oven fries.

Nice change from beef!
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I used turkey instead of chicken because I couldn't find ground chicken in my store. I was afraid they would turn out dry but... they weren't at all. Like others I thought the patties were way too big so next time I will make 6 instead of 4. Also thought the burgers were good enough with cheese, not sure it really needed the extra calories of the ham. Very easy and quite yummy. Thanks again Rach!!Read more

Great 'burgers'
Rated: 5 stars out of 5

I thought this was excellent! Next time I will ask for the canadian bacon to be sliced a bit thicker and as for the poultry... seasoning--I didn't have any on hand, but I did have some fresh sage and rosemary and used about 1 tsp of each of those and I thought the flavor was great!!Read more

Good stuff
Rated: 3 stars out of 5

I agree with the other folks who say that there's too much poultry seasoning. We liked them otherwise! A word to the folks... giving them to their dogs, onions (shallots) will kill dogs. I wouldn't recommend giving them anything with onion in it at all!Read more

Very yummy
Rated: 4 stars out of 5

Very yummy. I immediately loved the flavor of these burgers and will make again. The chicken was so flavorful I'm not sure I... will use the Canadian bacon next time. I made along with the oven fries for a completely tasty dinner.Read more
