Blue Cheese Chicken Patty Melts with Grilled Onions

Instructions

• Gently form the ground chicken into four oval patties of equal size, each about 2 centimetres thick. With your thumb or the back of a spoon, make a shallow indentation about 2.5 centimetres wide in the centre of the patties to prevent them from doming as they cook. Refrigerate the patties until ready to grill.
• In a small bowl mix the mayonnaise and mustard.
• Prepare the grill for direct cooking over medium heat (180°C to 230°C).
• Lightly coat the onion slices on both sides with oil, season with salt and pepper, and then grill over direct medium heat, with the lid closed, until tender, 6 to 8 minutes, turning once. Remove from the grill.
