Fajita Burger Recipe

Prepare the Patty

In a mixing bowl, combine ground beef, salt, black pepper, and chili powder. Mix until just combined and shape into a 10oz patty.

Cook the Patty

Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patty for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until it reaches your desired doneness. Place a slice of pepper jack cheese on top of the patty during the last minute of cooking to melt.

Sauté Vegetables

Slice the poblano pepper, bell pepper, and onion. In a skillet over medium heat, add a little oil and sauté the vegetables until they're soft and slightly caramelized, about 5-7 minutes.

Assemble the Burger

Toast the brioche bun if desired. On the bottom half of the bun, place a lettuce leaf, followed by the cooked patty with melted cheese, sautéed peppers and onions, guacamole, and tomato slices. Top with the other half of the bun.

Prepare the Fries

Bake or fry the frozen French fries according to package instructions until crispy and golden brown.

Make the Queso

Roast the poblano pepper until charred, then peel and dice. In a saucepan over medium heat, combine cream cheese, shredded cheddar cheese, milk, garlic powder, salt, and the diced poblano. Stir occasionally until melted and smooth.
