Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 15 oz Black beans (canned, drained and rinsed)
- 1 tbsp Chipotle peppers in adobo sauce (chopped finely)
- 0.5 cup Red onion (finely diced)
- 0.75 cup Panko breadcrumbs
- 1 tsp Ground cumin
- 1 tsp Smoked paprika
- 0.25 cup Fresh cilantro (chopped)
- 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 1 Egg (lightly beaten)
- 1 tbsp Olive oil
- 0.5 tsp Salt
- 0.25 tsp Black pepper
- 4 Burger buns
- Toppings (lettuce, tomato slices, avocado, etc.)
Instructions
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375–400°F). If you don't have a grill, you can use a stovetop grill pan or skillet.
Place the black beans in a large mixing bowl. Use a fork or potato masher to mash them until mostly smooth but with some chunks remaining for texture.
Add the chipotle peppers, red onion, panko breadcrumbs, ground cumin, smoked paprika, cilantro, garlic, beaten egg, olive oil, salt, and black pepper to the black beans. Mix everything together until well combined.
Divide the mixture into four equal portions and shape them into burger patties. Make sure the patties are compact to prevent them from falling apart while cooking.
Lightly oil the grill grates using a paper towel dipped in oil and held with tongs. This will prevent sticking.
Place the burger patties onto the grill. Cook for 4–5 minutes per side, flipping carefully with a spatula, until the patties are firm and have grill marks.
Toast the burger buns on the grill for about 1–2 minutes if desired.
Assemble the burgers by placing the patties on the buns and adding your choice of toppings, such as lettuce, tomato, avocado, or additional chipotle sauce.
Serve immediately and enjoy your smoky, flavorful Grilled Chipotle Mexican Black Bean Burgers!
