Lemon&herb chicken club burger
The joy of barbecuing chicken breasts is that they take minutes to cook, which makes them suitable for all barbecues - whether you're cooking on a portable one or using a larger grill in the garden. Here, we've stacked the chicken with a winning combination of bacon, lettuce, avocados and a lemony burger sauce.

1 First, make the marinade. Crush the garlic with the thyme and a pinch of salt using a pestle and mortar. Add the lemon juice, olive oil and plenty of cracked black pepper and mash together to combine. Lay the chicken breasts out on a board and flatten slightly using a rolling pin until they are an even thickness. Transfer to a container with the marinade, then seal, shake and chill until needed, or for up to 1 hr. Light the barbecue and wait until the coals are ashen, or heat a gas barbecue to medium.
