Burger Patty

Toppings

Pico de Gallo

Cilantro-Lime Aioli

Method

Burger Patty

  1. 1

    Prepare the Patty Mixture

    In a mixing bowl, combine the chorizo sausage and ground beef. Add salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix well until fully incorporated.

  2. 2

    Form the Patties

    Divide the mixture into two equal portions and form into patties, ensuring they are slightly larger than the ciabatta rolls as they will shrink while cooking.

  3. 3

    Cook the Patties

    Heat a skillet or grill over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 5-6 minutes on each side or until they reach an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C).

Egg

  1. 4

    Cook the Egg

    In a small skillet, add a little oil or butter over medium heat. Crack the egg and cook until the white is set but the yolk is still runny, about 3-4 minutes. Season with a pinch of salt.

Pico de Gallo

  1. 5

    Prepare Pico de Gallo

    In a bowl, finely dice the tomato and red onion. Chop the cilantro and add to the bowl along with lime juice and salt. Mix well and set aside.

Cilantro-Lime Aioli

  1. 6

    Make Cilantro-Lime Aioli

    In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, chopped cilantro, lime juice, minced garlic, and salt. Stir until smooth and well combined.

Assembly

  1. 7

    Assemble the Burger

    Slice the ciabatta rolls in half. Spread a generous amount of cilantro-lime aioli on the bottom half. Place the cooked patty on top, followed by a slice of pepper jack cheese, a spoonful of pico de gallo, and finally the egg. Top with the other half of the ciabatta roll.
