Farmers Market Dinner - BBQ Chicken Burgers, Corn & Salad

.
Last night I made this farmers market dinner. Super easy, super good, and there was leftovers for today's lunch.

Veggie

Corn on the cob, fresh from the market right now (boiled for 3-5 minutes)

Salad

Mix of lettuces from the farmers market
Heather's
Basic Balsamic Dressing
Blue cheese, crumbled (I used Bleu Des Causses)
Dried sour cherries
Good tomatoes from the market, cut into small wedges


BBQ Chicken Burgers

Marinade:
2 chicken breasts, butterflied and cut in half
1/2 - 1 lemon, juiced
1/4 - 1/3 cup olive oil
2 cloves garlic, chopped
Salt & pepper

For the burgers:
BBQ sauce
Provolone
Hamburger buns, brioche buns or kaiser buns
Red onion, thinly sliced
Lettuce

Marinate chicken breasts for a few hours. Remove from marinade and grill on the BBQ. When you flip the chicken, top with BBQ sauce and provolone. While chicken is grilling, place buns open faced on cookie sheets. Broil for a few minutes to toast and then spread with some butter. When chicken is cooked through, serve on toasted buns with more BBQ sauce, mayo, lettuce and onion.
