Great idea to use up Cranberry Jelly or Sauce and it is an amazing combination with Chicken and Camembert

I hope everyone had a very Merry Christmas and did not overdo the eating too much 🙂 Oh, what am I talking about ! Christmas (and all other holidays for that matter!) is the day when you can really throw all good intentions overboard.

Now, let’s talk about leftovers …… I had some Cranberry Jelly and Camembert Cheese left over and decided to make these Cranberry Camembert Chicken Burgers.

Yep, no heavy cooking or baking until at least, well, New Year’s Eve, of course, which is less than a week away anyway.

This is an absolute simple recipe, or not even much of a recipe, more of an idea what and which flavors works well when you have a little of this and a little of that left. Any cooked Chicken, the white parts ? If so, use that instead of the crumbed Chicken Patties which I have used.

Or make your own crumbed Chicken Patties, using raw Chicken fillets, covered in a crumb of your choice.

I am really, really lazy for quite a few days after Christmas and have used good quality, freshly made from our local butchery, crumbed Chicken Patties, which only required a few minutes in the George Foreman and it was fully cooked. (I just love my George Foreman !)
