A homemade Oporto Bondi Burger with grilled chicken, cheese and chipotle mayo

Ingredients

Home-kitchen amounts for 2 — standard home-cooking quantities for this dish, not the chain’s recipe (chains do not publish theirs). Difficulty: Medium.

  • 2 chicken breast fillets (about 150 g each)
  • Marinade: 2 tbsp olive oil, juice of ½ lemon, 1 tsp smoked paprika, 1 tsp dried oregano, 1 garlic clove crushed, ½ tsp salt
  • Chilli mayonnaise: ½ cup mayonnaise plus 1–2 tsp chilli sauce, to taste
  • 2 soft burger buns
  • 2 slices cheese
  • 4 cos lettuce leaves
  • 1 tomato, sliced

Method

  1. Butterfly the fillets to an even thickness and marinate for at least 30 minutes (overnight is better).
  2. Grill or barbecue the chicken over high heat for 4–5 minutes per side, basting with leftover marinade as it cooks, until charred at the edges and cooked through. Lay the cheese on for the last minute.
  3. Toast the buns. Stir the chilli mayonnaise and taste — the Bondi style is a slow heat, not a blast.
  4. Sauce both bun halves, add lettuce and tomato, then the hot fillet.
  5. Rest 2 minutes and serve with extra chilli mayo on the side.
