Chipotle Cheeseburger

Jump to recipe

A burger with a fiery twist

The classic cheeseburger gets a tasty update with the addition of GOYA® Chipotle Peppers in Adobo Sauce. These chipotle chiles are jalapeno peppers that have been dried, smoked, and then packed in a flavorful sauce made of tomatoes and other spices.

Here, we add these special peppers twice – first to the mayonnaise, which gets spread on the buns, and then mixed into the meat before its grilled. And don’t skip the red onions and tomatoes: they add a sweet, crisp bite.

Perfectly Seasoned Meat – Every time!

You added GOYA® Adobo All-Purpose Seasoning the burger meat, but since the beef is still raw, you can’t taste to see if the seasoning is to your liking. The easiest way: Scoop out a spoonful of meat, form into a small hamburger shape and cook on an oiled skillet until cooked-though. Then, taste and adjust.
