Chicken Cordon Bleu Burger

I'm attempting to eat a little healthier this experiment recently popped in my head while watching a food show.

Ingredients

I started with about a half pound of ground chicken, about 4oz of diced ham, part of an onion diced and 4 slices of swiss cheese also diced, I also used 2 types of Mrs Dash seasonings i(steak and chicken) instead of salt, about a tablespoon of mustard for a binder and about 1/4cup of oil to add moisture

Mix

I mixed the previous ingredients and formed into burger like patties

Fry

you could bake these or cook on a grill but I chose to pour about a 1/4" of oil in a pan and fry them

Serve

I served mine on a hard roll along with sweet potato fries (no real reason why except both were buy 1 get 1 free when I went shopping.)   oh yeah..ranch dressing on the fries
 
 

Conclusions

 This chicken burger was really tasty but next time I'll run the ham through the processor or grater, the chunks made for an odd juxtaposition of textures. Swiss cheese is normal for a cordon bleu but I think a sharp cheddar or even a pepper jack would work really well
