Caribbean Pineapple Bacon Burger with Plantain Chips

Instructions

1. 1

   Preheat your oven to 200°C (400°F) for the plantain chips.

2. 2

   Peel the plantains and slice them thinly into rounds. Toss the slices with 2 tbsp coconut oil and 1/2 tsp sea salt.

3. 3

   Spread the plantain slices in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake for 15-20 minutes, flipping halfway, until golden and crispy. Remove and set aside.

4. 4

   In a large bowl, combine 800g ground beef with 2 tbsp Caribbean all-purpose seasoning and 1/2 tsp sea salt. Mix gently and form into 4 equal burger patties.

5. 5

   Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the bacon slices until crispy, then set aside on paper towels.

6. 6

   Grill the burger patties for 4-5 minutes per side, or until cooked to your desired doneness. In the last minute of cooking, place a slice of Swiss cheese on each patty to melt.

7. 7

   Grill the pineapple rings for 1-2 minutes per side until caramelized and lightly charred.

8. 8

   Toast the brioche buns lightly on the grill or in a toaster.
