Chili Burger Recipe

Chili Burger Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Beef Mixture

   In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly until all spices are evenly distributed.

2. 2

   Shape the Patties

   Divide the beef mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each portion into a patty, making a slight indentation in the center to prevent puffing during cooking.

3. 3

   Cook the Patties

   Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired doneness. In the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty to melt.

4. 4

   Heat the Chili Beans

   While the patties are cooking, heat the chili beans in a small saucepan over medium heat until warmed through, stirring occasionally.

5. 5

   Prepare the Toppings

   Chop the green onions, slice the tomato, and wash the lettuce. Prepare your burger buns by toasting them lightly if desired.

6. 6

   Assemble the Burger

   On each burger bun, place the cooked patty with melted cheese, followed by a generous spoonful of heated chili beans, a dollop of sour cream, and top with green onions, lettuce, and tomato slices.

7. 7

   Serve

   Serve the chili burgers immediately while hot, and enjoy with your favorite side dish!
