My adaptation of a recipe that came with a bottle of Tabasco Chipotle Pepper Sauce. Juicy and tender, this burger has a wonderful smoky, spicy flavor without being overpoweringly hot. Ingredients:
1 tablespoon vegetable oil |
1 large sweet onion, halved and thinly sliced |
4 tablespoons chipotle hot sauce (i use tabasco brand) |
1 tablespoon worcestershire sauce |
1 1/2 lbs ground beef |
1/4 cup cilantro, chopped |
1 teaspoon salt |
4 slices monterey jack pepper cheese |
4 hamburger buns, toasted |
Directions:
1. Heat the oil in a medium-size skillet over medium heat.
2. Add the onions and cook until golden brown (5-7 minutes), stirring often.
3. Add the Worcestershire sauce and 1 Tbsp of the chipotle sauce, stirring well to evenly coat the onions. Then remove the onions from the heat and keep warm.
4. Combine the ground beef, cilantro, salt, and 3 Tbsp of the chipotle sauce (Use 2 Tbsp for milder burgers) and shape into 4 burgers.
5. Grill over medium-high heat. (Approx. 4 minutes per side for medium-rare. 5 minutes per side for medium-well.).
6. Top each burger with a slice of pepper-jack cheese and grill until the cheese melts.
7. Place the burgers on toasted buns, and top with the spicy onions.
8. Add any burger toppings you’re fond of. I like a little bit of horseradish mayo on my burgers.
