Categories     main-dish

Time 1h20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 18

8 pieces thick-cut bacon
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup fresh cilantro, chopped
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 pound ground chuck
1/2 pound chorizo
One 4-ounce can diced green chiles (not drained)
1/4 cup olive oil
2 tablespoons salted butter
4 large eggs
4 burger buns
Green leaf lettuce, leaves separated
1 large tomato, sliced thin
Hot sauce, to taste
Taco Tots, recipe follows
One 32-ounce bag frozen potato tots (about 5 cups)
1 tablespoon taco seasoning
1 cup grated Monterey Jack cheese

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Put the bacon on a sheet pan lined with foil. Bake until crispy, 18 to 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, make the cilantro mayo: Mix the mayo with the chopped cilantro and a pinch of salt and pepper in a small bowl. Set aside.
  • Preheat a large cast-iron skillet over medium heat.
  • For the patties, mix the chuck, chorizo, green chiles, a pinch of salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper in a large bowl until combined well. Pinch off a fourth of the meat mixture, forming it into a disc. Repeat with the remaining meat to make 3 more discs. Put 2 tablespoons olive oil in the preheated skillet, then add the patties. Using the bottom of a spatula, smash the patties until they are about 1/2-inch-thick. Fry until cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes per side, then remove to a plate.
  • Meanwhile, start the eggs. Heat the remaining olive oil and the butter in a nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the eggs and cook sunny-side up, 5 to 6 minutes for a slightly runny yolk. Remove the eggs with a slotted spatula to drain or remove the eggs to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
  • Spread the bottom of each bun with some of the cilantro mayo and place on plates or a serving dish. Top each with a patty and 2 pieces of bacon. Top each with lettuce, tomato and an egg; drizzle with some hot sauce. Spread the remaining cilantro mayo on the bun lids, then place them carefully on top of the burgers.
  • Serve alongside the Taco Tots.
  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • Toss the potato tots and taco seasoning on a sheet pan. Bake until crisp, about 20 minutes. Remove from the oven, sprinkle over the cheese and return to the oven to melt the cheese, 5 minutes more.

CHORIZO BURGER



Chorizo Burger image

I normally use homemade Mexican chorizo and home ground venison for this, but store-bought ground beef, bison, turkey or pork will work, as will store-bought chorizo.

Provided by Hank Shaw

Categories     lunch     Main Course

Time 1h15m

Number Of Ingredients 14

3 tablespoons vegetable oil
2 large onions, minced
4 to 8 roasted green chiles, (Hatch, Anaheim or poblano)
4 burger buns
4 slices pepper jack cheese
Lettuce leaves
1 pound ground venison, (or beef, turkey, bison, etc.)
1/3 pound chorizo, (only 1/4 pound if it's the stuff in a tube)
Salt
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
2 cups mayonnaise
1/2 cup chopped cilantro
2 roasted green chiles
Salt to taste

Steps:

  • Start by heating the 3 tablespoons of vegetable oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Add the minced onion and let this cook, stirring often, until the onion has nicely browned. Turn off the heat and set aside when it's ready.
  • If you are starting from fresh peppers, you will need to roast, peel and deseed them. This is a good tutorial on that, or you can use canned or pre-frozen roasted chiles.
  • Add all the ingredients for the mayo and puree. Add salt to taste. You will have some left over, so keep it in a container in the fridge, where it will last a couple weeks.
  • Mix the ground meats together and knead well so they combine cohesively. Form into balls and slightly flatten them. If you are grilling, just form normal patties and grill. What follows is for a smashburger.
  • Get a comal or griddle or large frying pan hot. Add the 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil. Set one of the balls of meat in the center of the oil, and use it to spread the oil around a little. Slick the underside of a bacon press or other pan with some oil. Press the meat into a patty of about 1/2 inch thick, more or less. Hold the pressure for about 30 seconds, then slide the bacon press off the patty to the side. Don't lift straight up or the patty will break. Salt the patty as it cooks.
  • Let the meat cook for about 90 seconds more, then flip. Salt the other side. Add some onions to the middle of the patty and top with a slice of cheese. I like to put a metal bowl over the burger now to melt the cheese. Let this sit for another minute to 2 minutes, depending on how well cooked you like your burgers. While this is happening, lay the lettuce leaves on your buns and top with a little of the mayo.
  • To build the burger, set the patty on the bun, then top with some of the roasted chiles and some more mayo. Serve at once. You can also layer like this: patty, onions, green chiles, then cheese. The greenery always touches the bun, and the mayo or other sauce goes on between lettuce and burger. °

Provided by Food.com

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 1h10m

Yield 6 burgers, 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

3/4 lb ground sirloin
3/4 lb ground chuck
1/2 lb raw chorizo sausage, casings removed and crumbled
1 tablespoon adobo seasoning
1 large onion, grated
1/2 cup dry breadcrumbs
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 large yellow onions, finely sliced
kosher salt, to season
fresh ground pepper, to season
1/2 cup bottled and sliced jalapeno chile, drained
1/2 cup dark brown sugar
2 medium jarred roasted red peppers, drained
3/4 cup mayonnaise
6 slices oaxaca cheese or 6 slices mozzarella cheese
6 hamburger buns

Steps:

  • To make the Latin Burgers:.
  • In a large bowl, mix thoroughly by hand the ground beef, the chorizo, the adobo seasoning, the grated onion and the bread crumbs. Form the burgers into 6 patties without pressing them too much or they can become tough. Line a baking pan with waxed paper and put the burgers side-by-side in a single layer. Cover and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes. This will help the burgers hold together. If you make more than you need just separate with waxed paper and insert into a storage freezer bag for future use.
  • To make the Caramelized Onion and Jalapeno Relish:.
  • Heat the olive oil in a heavy skillet over medium-low heat. Add the onions and season with salt and pepper. Add the jalapeno chiles and the brown sugar. Saute for 15 minutes or until the onion and the chiles are caramelized and soft. Set aside.
  • To make the Red Pepper Mayonnaise:.
  • Drain the roasted red peppers and put them in a blender or food processor. Add the mayonnaise, and season with salt and pepper. Puree the mayonnaise and roasted red peppers until well combined and the mixture is smooth. NOTE: This may be done up to 2 days ahead of time, and in fact the flavor will be more complete with an overnight chilling.
  • To cook the Latin Burgers:.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill or grill pan on the stove top over medium-high heat. Place the burgers on the hot grill or pan until cooked to desired doneness. Due to the raw chorizo in the recipe, at least medium-well is recommended, approximately 10 minutes on each side. In the last 5 minutes of cooking, top the burgers with the slices of cheese so it can melt. If your grill has a lid, putting it on briefly will help the cheese melt quickly and evenly.
  • To serve: Spread about 1 tablespoon of the red pepper mayonnaise on both sides of the rolls. Lay a burger on the bottom halves, and top with a couple of spoonfuls of the caramelized onion and jalapeno relish.

Provided by gailanng

Categories     Mexican

Time 1h10m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 27

17 5/8 ounces ground pork shoulder, ideally 30% fat (500 grams or roughly 1.1 pounds)
2 garlic cloves, finely minced
1 1/2 teaspoons Mexican chili powder
1 1/2 teaspoons sweet paprika
1 teaspoon hot paprika or 1 teaspoon cayenne powder
1 teaspoon red wine vinegar
1 teaspoon tequila
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
8 large shrimp, peeled and deveined (2 for each burger)
3 sprigs fresh thyme leaves
1 garlic clove, minced
1/2 teaspoon extra virgin olive oil
1/3 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
3 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1 1/2 teaspoons paprika
1 teaspoon yellow mustard
1 lime, juice of
1 tablespoon olive oil
1/2 teaspoon butter
4 sweet potato hamburger buns (see recipe #518438) or 4 other hamburger buns (see Sweet Potato Burger Buns)
1/2 cup of shredded manchego cheese
1 few thin slices tomatoes (optional)

Steps:

  • To prepare the chorizo patties: Mix all the ingredients together until evenly combined. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour. Note: Can make this the day before.
  • To prepare the garlic shrimp: After peeling, deveining and rinsing the shrimp, dry them really well on a clean towel or paper toweling. Mix evenly with the remaining shrimp ingredients. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 min to 1 hour.
  • To prepare the paprika mayo: Mix all the ingredients together until even. Set aside.
  • To make the burger: Divide the chorizo-mixture into 4 equal portions, then shape into patties slightly larger than the buns.
  • Heat up 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until sizzling hot, then add the butter until melted. To the pan add the chorizo patties (maximum 2 patties at a time). Leave the patties to pan-fry without moving, until a nicely browned crust has formed on the bottom. Turn the patties over, then add the shredded manchego cheese on top (2-3 tablespoons on each).
  • Cover the skillet completely with a lid and keep cooking on medium-high heat for another 1-2 min (the steam will melt the cheese as well as cook the patties), just until the center of the patties is cooked through. Transfer the patties onto a plate and let rest.
  • Keep the chorizo drippings in the skillet and cook the shrimp on high-heat, about 1 min on each side until just cooked through. Set aside.
  • If you want to toast the buns, remove any food-solids inside the skillet with a bit of oil left, then toast the cut-sides of the buns until golden browned in the same skillet.
  • Apply a generous layer of paprika mayonnaise on both sides of the buns, then put 2 thinly sliced tomatoes and a chorizo patty on top. Slice the shrimp lengthwise and place over the patty. Top with upper bun.

Tips:

  • When choosing chorizo, opt for a variety that is not too spicy, as this can overpower the other flavors in the burger.
  • Be sure to cook the chorizo thoroughly before adding it to the burgers, as this will help to prevent foodborne illness.
  • If you don't have a meat grinder, you can finely chop the chorizo instead.
  • For a more flavorful burger, use a combination of ground beef and chorizo.
  • Don't overcook the burgers, as this will make them dry and tough.
  • Serve the burgers on toasted buns with your favorite toppings, such as lettuce, tomato, onion, and cheese.

Conclusion:

Latin chorizo burgers are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a casual get-together. By following the tips in this article, you can create juicy, flavorful burgers that will be a hit with your friends and family.
