Pancetta-Chicken Burger with Tarragon Guacamole

Adding gluten free pancetta or bacon to the burgers creates a wonderful flavor, and as it keeps the burgers moist and juicy.

For burgers, combine all ingredients together.

With well oiled hands, shape into 6 patties (or use my favorite burger press). Chill for at least 1 hour to allow flavors to blend and patties to firm up.

Oil BBQ grate and grill burgers until fully cooked (internal temperature reaches 165°F), about 5-7 minutes per side.

For guacamole, combine lime juice and onion in a dish and let sit 15 minutes to mellow onions strong flavor. Add remaining ingredients, mashing to combine everything into a smooth mixture. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
