Cobb Style Chicken Burger with Avocado Spread
Roquefort is a tangy blue cheese that is often found in Cobb salad. Here, it is cooked in the chicken burgers for extra flavour but more can be added as a garnish, if desired. Recipe can be prepared without Roquefort or substitute with a milder blue cheese such as Danish Blue or coarsely grated sharp cheddar.

Directions
Preheat a grill to high.
In a non-stick skillet, set over high heat, cook bacon until crispy. Drain on paper towels and set aside.
Meanwhile, in a large bowl, combine chicken, onion, watercress leaves, cheese, mustard, salt and Worcestershire and mix gently. With lightly oiled or wet hands, form mixture into 4 (6oz) burgers, about 3/4-inch thick, and set aside.
In the small bowl of a food processor, combine avocado, lemon juice and garlic and process until smooth. With the motor running, add oil and process until combined; season to taste with salt and pepper and set aside.
Lightly brush both sides of burgers with olive oil and place burgers on hot grill. Cook, flipping once until cooked through, about 4 to 5 minutes per side. Place buns on grill and lightly toast on both sides, about 1 minute and set aside.
To assemble burgers, divide avocado mixture among bottom half of each bun and spread evenly. Top with chicken burgers followed by bacon, tomato, watercress sprigs, Roquefort if desired, and cover with remaining buns.
