Nacho Cheese Burger [1]

Nacho Cheese Burger

  • Prep Time: 20 minutes
  • Total Time: 30 minutes
  • Yield: 6 servings
[2]

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds ground beef chuck, preferably 80/20 blend
  • Salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
  • Emeril's Con Queso, half recipe [3]
  • Fresh House Made Guacamole, half recipe [4]
  • Adobo Chile Salsa, half recipe [5]
  • tortilla chips, for garnish
  • 6 hamburger buns, toasted

Directions

  • Place the ground chuck in a shallow bowl and sprinkle lightly with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with the Worcestershire sauce and then mix the beef gently to evenly distribute the seasonings. Shape into 6 flattened patties about 1/2-inch thick and roughly the same diameter as the buns.

    Heat a large nonstick or cast iron skillet over medium-high heat.

    When hot, add the patties to the pan and cook until crisp on one side, 2 to 3 minutes. Flip the burgers to the second side and top each patty with 2 to 3 tablespoons of the Queso, as desired. Cook until the patties are golden and slightly crisp on the second side, 2 to 3 minutes longer, and cheese is warm and melty.

  • Transfer the burgers to the warmed buns, and garnish with the guacamole, salsa and a few of the tortilla chips.
     
    Serve with tortilla chips on the side and any leftover salsa and guacamole.
