Jalapeno Popper Burger With Ranch
Description
This burger recipe creates patties from ground meat combined with an egg, onion and garlic powders, salt, pepper, and rolled oats which help bind and add texture. After forming six patties, they are cooked medium-high heat and topped with processed cheese slices.
The crispy jalapeño slices are prepared by dipping them in egg whites and coating with panko breadcrumbs, then fried in olive oil until golden and crunchy. This adds spice and crunch to the burger.
A creamy jalapeño sauce blends jalapeño Tabasco sauce with reduced-fat cream cheese for a mellow but spicy spread. The assembled burgers are dressed with this sauce and ranch dressing on toasted whole-wheat Kaiser rolls, balancing heat and creaminess.
This burger combines rich meatiness with multiple layers of jalapeño flavor and varied textures from soft cheese and crunchy fried peppers.
Ingredients
For the burgers:
- 1.5 pounds ground bison or lean ground beef
- 1 large egg
- 4 teaspoons onion powder
- 2 teaspoons garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 pinch black pepper
- 1/2 cup rolled oats old-fashioned
- 12 lices processed cheese singles Kraft 2% milk
For the crisp jalapeños:
- olive oil for frying
- 6 jalapeno pepper sliced, small
- 3 large egg white
- 1 cup panko crumbs whole-wheat
For the jalapeño sauce:
- 1 1/2 tablespoons jalapeno tabasco sauce
- 3/4 cup cream cheese reduced-fat
To assemble:
- 6 kaiser roll bun whole-wheat
- 6 tablespoons ranch dressing reduced-fat
Instructions
To make the burgers:
- Combine ground meat, egg, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, pepper, and rolled oats in a large bowl.
- Mix thoroughly and shape into 6 patties.
- Cook the burger patties over medium-high heat for 4 to 5 minutes per side. Place two slices of cheese on each burger after flipping them over.
To make the crispy jalapeños:
- Heat a medium-sized sauce pan on medium heat, and pour just enough oil into it to just cover the bottom.
- Place the egg white in a small bowl, and the panko on a small plate.
- Dunk the sliced jalapeños into the egg white and then into the panko. The panko will not stick to the outside very well, but make sure you pack it into the center of the jalapeño slices.
- Fry the jalapeño slices in olive oil until golden brown and crispy, about 5 minutes. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate, and blot off the excess oil. Set aside.
To make the jalapeño sauce:
- In a medium bowl, mix together the jalapeño sauce and the cream cheese. Adjust the level of spiciness to your preference.
To assemble:
- Spread some of the cream cheese mixture on half of each kaiser roll, and spread the ranch dressing on the other half.
- Place a patty on each roll, and top with the crispy jalapeños.
