Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Beef Patty

    In a bowl, season the ground beef with salt and black pepper. Form into a half-pound patty.

  2. 2

    Sauté Onions and Chiles

    In a skillet over medium heat, melt 1 tablespoon of butter. Add the sliced onion and sauté until translucent. Add the Hatch green chiles and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until heated through.

  3. 3

    Cook the Patty

    In another skillet, heat the remaining tablespoon of butter over medium-high heat. Add the beef patty and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until it reaches your desired level of doneness.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Patty Melt

    Once the patty is cooked, place it on a slice of bread. Top with the sautéed onions and green chiles, followed by the Monterey Jack cheese. Top with the second slice of bread.

  5. 5

    Grill the Sandwich

    In the same skillet, grill the sandwich over medium heat until the bread is golden brown and the cheese has melted, about 3-4 minutes on each side.

  6. 6

    Serve

    Remove from the skillet, slice in half, and serve hot.
