Cooking Instructions
Prepare the Burger Patties
In a bowl, combine the ground beef and diced green chiles. Mix until well combined and form into two equal-sized patties.
Cook the Burgers
In a skillet over medium-high heat, cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until they reach your desired level of doneness.
Add Cheese
In the last minute of cooking, place a slice of pepper jack cheese on top of each patty to melt.
Assemble the Burger
On the bottom half of the burger bun, layer lettuce, the cooked patty with melted cheese, pickles, onion, and tomato. Top with the other half of the bun.
Serve
Serve the burger with a side of salsa for dipping.
