Instructions
Place two frying pans on a medium-to-high heat. Place 1.5tbsp oil in one, and 1/2 a tsp oil in the other. Once the oil is hot, place the sliced mushrooms, salt and pepper in the pan with more oil in, and the streaky bacon in the pan with less oil in. Cook both the mushrooms and the bacon until dark and a little crispy.
2 tbsp olive oil, 8 medium mushrooms, good pinch of salt and pepper, 6 rashers of streaky bacon
Place the bacon and half of the mushrooms on a warm plate.
Cut your brioche rolls in half and lightly toast the insides under the grill. When toasted, place the rolls cut-side-down in the bacon pan, and allow the rolls to cook a little more in the leftover bacon fat. Take out once the rolls are darker brown and the fat has been absorbed. Place the rolls on plates.
4 brioche burger rolls
Add the garlic to the remaining mushrooms and cook on a low heat for a minute, then add in the cream and cheese and bring it to a gentle bubble. Let it bubble lightly whilst you start putting the burgers together.
Divide the spinach between the 4 burger rolls, then top with the fried mushrooms and sliced chicken. Spoon the cheesy mushroom sauce over the chicken and then top with the crispy bacon. Place the top of the burger roll on top and serve.
1 large handful of baby spinach leaves, 2 large roasted chicken breasts
