Chipotle Taco Burger Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Use your hands to thoroughly mix ground beef, onion, chipotle peppers, and taco seasoning together in a bowl; shape into 4 patties.
• Cook burgers on preheated grill until firm, hot, and grey in the center, 7 to 10 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).

Steps:

• To make the patties: Combine the beef, oregano, salt, garlic powder, and pepper to taste in a medium bowl and mix well. Shape into patties a little more than 1/2-inch thick, place on a plate, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
• To make the sauce: Stir together the sour cream, chipotles, adobo sauce, onions, cilantro, salt, and pepper to taste in a small bowl. Set aside.
• To make the burgers: Oil a grill rack and preheat the grill on high for 5 minutes. Spread the bun faces lightly with the butter. Grill the burgers over direct heat on medium-high (on a charcoal grill, set the burgers just outside the center of the grill rack), with the grill covered, for 4 minutes. Flip the burgers, top each with a slice of Cheddar, and grill, covered, 4 minutes more. Remove the burgers to a plate.
• Grill the buns, buttered-side down, over indirect heat, until golden, about 2 minutes. Set a burger on each bun bottom and top with avocado, tomato, lettuce, red onion and a dab of chipotle sauce. Top with the remaining bun halves and serve.

Steps:

• To prepare:.
• Combine the beef, 1/2 cup salsa, egg (if using) and the 1/2 packet of taco seasoning.
• Mix in large bowl.
• Shape into 4 even burgers. Place the mayonnaise and chipotle chile in blender. Cover and blend until nice and smooth.
• Grill or broil burgers, turning once, until desired doneness. Serve on buns topped with chipolte chile mayonnaise and choice of toppings.
• Serve with your favorite corn tortilla chips.

Steps:

• Heat a large skillet to medium high. Brown the beef in the skillet for a minute, then add the garlic and onion. Once the meat is no longer pink, drain. Add the chili powder, chipotles, tomato sauce, and salt. Heat over medium until ready to serve on warm tortillas or taco shells with desired toppings.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
• For the cilantro-lime cream: In a bowl, combine the sour cream, honey, lime juice, cilantro, coriander, cumin, salt and pepper and whisk together. Refrigerate until using.
• For the braised chicken: Heat a saute pan over high heat. Sprinkle the chicken with the kosher salt and pepper. Add the grapeseed oil to the pan and sear the chicken on both sides until golden brown, about 2 minutes per side. Do not overcrowd the pan; sear the chicken in batches if needed. Remove the chicken from the pan and hold in an oven-safe casserole dish for further cooking.
• Add the onions and peppers to the saute pan and cook until tender. Add the paprika, smoked paprika and chipotle peppers and saute with the peppers and onions for 1 minute. Add the chicken broth and ketchup, stir and bring to a simmer. Pour the braising liquid over the chicken and cover the casserole dish with foil. Cook in the oven until the chicken is tender and falls apart, 45 minutes.
• While the chicken is still hot, shred it and return it to the braising liquid. If you are using it right away, keep the chicken hot in the braising liquid for plating. (If you are refrigerating the chicken to use later, cool it down and store it in the braising liquid. Reheat it as needed for plating.)
• For the guacamole: Cut the avocados in half and remove the pits. With a spoon, scoop out the avocado flesh into a bowl. Add the red onions, tomatoes and cilantro and mash the ingredients together. Season with salt and lime juice.
• Divide the lettuce among the taco shells. Spoon about 2 ounces of the braised chicken into each shell. Top with guacamole, a tablespoon of cilantro-lime cream and 2 sprigs cilantro.

Steps:

• Combine ground beef, 2 tablespoons of the TABASCO® Chipotle Sauce and salt in a large bowl and mix well; shape into 6 patties.
• Combine mayonnaise with remaining 1 tablespoon TABASCO® Chipotle Sauce and mix well; set aside.
• Grill or broil hamburger patties to desired doneness; place cheese slices on burgers and continue cooking just until cheese melts.
• Spread mayonnaise on buns and top each with lettuce, burger, tomato and onion.
