Caesar Mayonnaise
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup finely grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese
1 1/2 tbsp Dijon mustard
1 tsp lemon zest
2 tsp lemon juice
1 small garlic clove, minced
Patties
450 g ground chicken
1/4 cup Italian bread crumbs
1 tbsp anchovy paste
1 small garlic clove, minced
1 tbsp butter
2 cups torn romaine
4 hamburger buns, split and toasted
2 tbsp bacon bits, (optional)
Instructions
Caesar Mayonnaise: Stir mayonnaise with cheese, Dijon, lemon zest, lemon juice and garlic in a small bowl. Season with pepper.
Patties: Combine chicken with bread crumbs, anchovy paste, garlic and 2 tbsp Caesar Mayonnaise in a medium bowl. Season with pepper.
Divide into 4 portions, then form into four 4-in.-wide patties.
Heat a large non-stick frying pan over medium.
Add butter, then patties. Cook until meat springs back when touched, 3 to 4 min per side. Remove to a plate; keep warm.
Toss romaine leaves with 3 tbsp Caesar Mayonnaise. Spread bottom buns with remaining 1 tbsp Caesar Mayonnaise. Layer with patties and romaine. Sprinkle with bacon bits. Sandwich with top bun.
Grilling tip
To barbecue, preheat to medium-high and oil grill. Cook patties, covered, 3 to 4 min per side. Grill buns until golden, 1 min, watching carefully.
