  • "Fajita" Burgers Recipe

    Ingredients
    1 pounds beef, lean ground, 90% lean
    3/4 cup(s) cilantro, fresh, chopped, divided
    1/2 cup(s) onion(s), red, finely chopped
    1/4 cup(s) scallion(s) (green onions), chopped
    2 teaspoon garlic, minced
    1 tablespoon chili powder, preferably New Mexican
    1 teaspoon cumin, ground
    1/2 teaspoon oregano, dried, preferably Mexican
    1/2 teaspoon pepper, black ground
    1/4 teaspoon salt
    1/3 cup(s) mayonnaise, reduced-fat
    1 tablespoon lime juice
    1 tablespoon pepper(s), chipotle chiles, in adobo sauce, chopped
    1/2 cup(s) cheese, Monterey Jack, shredded
    4 whole roll, French, preferably whole-wheat, split and toasted
    2 medium pepper(s), chile, green Anaheim, or poblano, roasted
    4 slice(s) tomato(es)
    4 slice(s) onion(s), red, thinly sliced



    Preparation

    1. Preheat grill to medium-high.

    2. Place beef, 1/4 cup cilantro, onion, scallions, garlic, chili powder, cumin, oregano, pepper and salt in a large bowl. Gently combine, without overmixing, until evenly incorporated. Form into 4 equal patties, about 1/2 inch thick and oval-shaped to match the rolls.

    3. Combine the remaining 1/2 cup cilantro, mayonnaise, lime juice and chipotle in a small bowl.

    4. Peel the roasted peppers, halve lengthwise and remove the seeds.

    5. Oil the grill rack (see Tip). Grill the burgers until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the center registers 165°F, about 6 minutes per side. Top with cheese and cook until it is melted, about 1 minute more.

    6. Assemble the burgers on toasted rolls with the chipotle mayonnaise, half a roasted pepper, cabbage, tomato and onion.
