Name: Southwestern Burgers
Prep time: 15 min
Total time: 25 min
Yield: 8
Ingredients: olive oil; 2 lb. ground beef (1 pound each chuck and sirloin); 2 can green chile peppers; 2 tsp. ground chili powder; 4 clove garlic; 8 slice Monterey Jack cheese; 1 large Vidalia onion; 8 brioche hamburger buns; 8 large Romaine lettuce leaves; 2 medium avocados; 1 c. salsa

Step 1Heat grill to medium-high and grease grates with oil. In a large bowl, combine beef, chiles, chili powder, and garlic. Form into eight 1/2-inch-thick patties. Grill burgers for about 5 minutes, then flip. Top with cheese and continue to grill to desired doneness: an extra 2 to 3 minutes for rare; 4 to 5 minutes for medium; 6 to 7 minutes for well.

Step 2Meanwhile, grill onions until soft and char marks form, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer onions and burgers to a plate. Grill buns until char marks form, about 1 minute; transfer to plate.

Step 3To assemble: Place lettuce on bottom half of each bun, then top each with a burger, 2 avocado slices, 2 tablespoons salsa, grilled onions, and bun top.
