Preparation

Step 1

Heat the grill to medium-high, brush it with oil, grill the chicken until just cooked, about 3-5 minutes per side, baste it with the strawberry BBQ sauce and let it cook for another minute.

Lightly grill the buns and assemble the sandwiches with bottom bun, lettuce, tomato, bacon, avocado, chicken, strawberry BBQ sauce, goat cheese and top bun.


Roasted Strawberry BBQ Sauce

Place the strawberries in a single layer on a baking pan lined with foil folded up on the sides to capture the juices and roast in a preheated 425F oven until they start to caramelize, about 15-20 minutes.

Bring everything except the cilantro to a boil, reduce the heat, simmer for 15 minutes, remove from heat, mix in the cilantro and puree in a food processor or blender or using an immersion blender.

Option: Add 4 slices of cooked and crumbled bacon.
