Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef
- 0.5 pound ground chorizo
- 2 large onions, thinly sliced
- 2 jalapenos, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1.5 teaspoons salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 4 hamburger buns
- 4 cheddar cheese slices
- 1 avocado, sliced
- 0.25 cup mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
Instructions
In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, ground chorizo, 1 teaspoon of salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika. Mix until the ingredients are evenly incorporated. Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape them into burger patties.
In a large skillet, heat the butter and olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and cook for 5-7 minutes until they begin to soften.
Add the chopped jalapenos, brown sugar, and a pinch of salt to the skillet. Cook for an additional 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the onions are caramelized and golden brown. Remove from heat and set aside.
Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Cook the burger patties for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired doneness. During the last minute of cooking, top each patty with a slice of cheddar cheese and allow it to melt.
Toast the hamburger buns lightly on the grill or in a skillet.
In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise and lime juice. Spread this mixture on the top and bottom halves of the buns.
To assemble, place a burger patty on the bottom half of each bun. Top with a generous spoonful of the caramelized onion jalapeno relish, a few slices of avocado, and the top half of the bun.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Latin Burgers with Caramelized Onion Jalapeno Relish!
