Jalapeno Burgers with Chipotle Aioli
Jalapeno Burgers with Chipotle Aioli are one of our favorite burgers. I start this dinner by making beef patties mixed with onions and jalapenos. Then, I top each burger with Monterey Jack cheese, crisp lettuce, and juicy tomato slices. Finally, I add a creamy Chipotle Aioli. And this all gets piled on buttery brioche buns. We like these cheeseburgers for several reasons. First of all, I like that I can make this meal in under an hour. Secondly, I like that these cheeseburgers reheat really well. Simply reheat them in the microwave. And, lastly, we all adore the spicy flavors in these burgers.
The Equipment I Used
- A Cast Iron Skillet- I like to make my burgers in a cast iron skillet. But, you can use any skillet that you like.
The Ingredients Needed for Jalapeno Burgers with Chipotle Aioli
- Ground Chuck Meat- I like to use ground chuck meat in my burgers. I find that it makes the most juicy burgers. But, you can use any kind of ground beef that you like.
- Jalapenos- You’ll need jalapenos for the ground beef mixture.
- Chipotles in Adobo Sauce- These can be found in cans in the Hispanic section of your market. I like to store the contents of the can in my freezer.
