New Mexico Green Chile and Frito Burgers
Annabelle Breakey
Chiles spice up these burgers three ways: grilled, in the pepper jack cheese, and in the chipotle mayo. If you have access to fresh Hatch chiles from New Mexico, which are meaty and full-flavored, by all means use them, but feel free to substitute readily available Anaheims or use canned chiles.
How to Make It
Step 1
Heat grill to medium (350° to 450°). Mix ground chuck, salt, and pepper in a large bowl until just combined (do not overmix). Divide into 4 portions and form into 1/2-in. patties with a slight depression in the center of each to help them cook evenly. Brush with 1 tsp. oil.
Step 2
Rub fresh chiles with remaining 1 tsp. oil. Grill over high heat, turning often, until blackened, about 4 minutes. Cover with a towel to steam, about 10 minutes. When cool, rub off skins, then stem, seed, and slice chiles into strips.
Step 3
Grill burgers until cooked the way you like, about 7 minutes for medium. In last few minutes, lay a cheese slice on each burger and lay split rolls on grill.
Step 4
Arrange burgers on bottom of buns and top with one-quarter of chiles and Fritos. Mix mayonnaise and barbecue sauce and dollop about 2 tsp. onto each burger. Set tops of rolls in place.
Step 5
*Canned Hatch green chiles are available in some grocery stores.
Step 6

This burger sounds like ..well....something not toooo great....Was I wrong. This burger has got to be the simplest yet best burger my husband and I have ever tasted, all the way down to the Frito topping...That coming from a husband that is a regular yellow mustard freak...and a burger must have tomatoes/lettuce/red onions on top...followed the recipe exact other than adding extra Hatches chili's...give it a try..you'll like it..
