- 1/2 tomato
- 6 thin slices of goat cheese
- Canons
- 2 hamburger buns
- Olive oil
- Salt
- Pepper

Recipe:
- Wash the eggplant, the canons and the tomato thoroughly.
- Cut two slices of tomato for each burger.
- Split the eggplant into thin slices and, each slice, in half.
- In a pan with a few drops of olive oil, sauté the eggplant on both sides until golden.
- Put salt and peppers to the chicken breasts.
- In the same pan where you have cooked the eggplant, fry the chicken until golden.
- Start the hamburger by placing a bed of canons on top of the bread, then the chicken breasts, the eggplant, the tomato and the goat's cheese.

*Tip for cookers: We have not added any sauce, we found it delicious as is, but you can add one if you want. Sure it's very rich with mayonnaise, mustard mayonnaise or pesto. Which one would you add?


Bon appétit!
