Ingredients

  • 1/3 cup plain flour
  • 1 tsp kosher salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 3/4 tsp paprika
  • 1 tsp dried thyme
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • 1/2 tsp onion powder
  • 2 tbsp olive oil, divided
  • 2 large onions, halved and sliced
  • 15¾ oz chicken breast, cut in half horizontally into thin steaks
  • 4 slices Swiss or other melting cheese
  • 4 soft brioche burger buns
  • 1 avocado, sliced
  • 4 lettuce leaves
  • 2 large tomatoes, sliced
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 large garlic clove, minced
  • French fries or baked potato wedges, to serve

Method

  1. Mix the mayonnaise with the minced garlic in a small bowl and set aside.
  2. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large frying pan over medium-low heat. Add the onions with a pinch of salt and cook, stirring often, for 10 to 12 minutes, until soft and golden. Transfer to a bowl.
  3. Mix the flour, salt, pepper, paprika, thyme, garlic powder and onion powder on a plate. Coat each piece of chicken evenly in the seasoned flour.
  4. Heat the remaining 1 tbsp oil in the same pan over medium-high heat. Cook the chicken for 3 to 4 minutes per side, until golden, crisp and cooked through.
  5. Lay a cheese slice on each piece of chicken, cover the pan for 30 to 60 seconds until the cheese melts, then remove from the heat.
  6. Toast the cut sides of the buns lightly in the pan or under the grill.
  7. Spread garlic mayonnaise on the bun bases and tops. Layer each base with lettuce, tomato, avocado, a piece of cheesy chicken and a spoonful of the cooked onions. Close with the bun tops.
  8. Serve immediately, with French fries or baked potato wedges.
