Share:
Ingredients
- 24 ounces ground turkey
- 12 ounces ground chorizo
- 1 large onion chopped
- 2 Jalapeno peppers chopped
- 2 cloves garlic chopped
- splash of olive oil
- 2 tbsp breadcrumbs if needed
- salt and pepper to taste
- 8 cheddar cheese slices
- 8 toasted buns for serving
- Any toppings you desire - like roasted jalapeno slices and homemade guacamole.
Instructions
- Heat a pan to medium heat and add oil. Add onions and peppers and cook about 6 minutes, or until they are cooked through and soft.
- Add the garlic and cook another minute until fragrant.
- Add to a large mixing bowl.
- Add the turkey, chorizo and salt and pepper. If the mixture feels too wet, add in the breadcrumbs to tighten it up. Hand mix, but do not overmix.
- Form into six 6 ounce patties, or eight 4.5 ounce patties. Or maybe four 9 ouncers! Go big or go home!
- Heat a grill to medium heat and lightly oil.
- Add the burgers and cook about 6-7 minutes per side, or until cooked through, depending on the size. Get your nice grill marks!
- Top with cheese slices and cover. Cook about a minute to melt the cheese.
- Serve on toasted buns with your favorite toppings. I used some guacamole, baby. And roasted jalapeno peppers, of course.
Notes
- Heat Factor: Medium. Up the heat factor with a spicier, hotter chorizo and hotter peppers.
- Calories are calculated without the guacamole.
