Ingredients
- 4 Tbsp Green Chile Infused Olive Oil
- 1 Large Vidalia Onion, thinly sliced
- 1.5 lbs Ground Beef
- 1 Egg
- 2 tsp Tomato Paste
- 1 tsp Worcestershire Sauce
- 1 Tbsp Sweet Smoked Chili Rub & Seasoning
- 1 tsp Chili Verde Flake Sea Salt
- 4-6 Hamburger Buns, to serve
- 4-6 Slices Havarti Cheese
- 4-5 Butter Lettuce Leaves
- ½ cup Red Pepper Jam
- 2 Large Sweet Potatoes
- 2 Tbsp Green Chile Infused Olive Oil
- 2 tsp Sweet Smoked Chili Rub & Seasoning
- ½ tsp Chili Verde Flake Sea Salt
- ¼ Fresh Lime, juiced
Directions
- In a medium skillet over medium low heat make your caramelized onions by adding 2 Tbsp Green Chile Infused Olive Oil to the pan and once shimmering add the onions. Cook for 45-60 minutes stirring occasionally carefully not to let the onions brown. Set aside.
- To make the fries, preheat the oven to 425F. Wash potatoes and peel the skin if desired. Cut potatoes into ½ in strips. Toss potatoes with Green Chile Infused Olive Oil and Sweet Smoked Chili Rub & Seasoning. Roast potatoes for 25 minutes turning the fries halfway through. Finish fries with Chili Verde Flake Sea Salt and lime juice.
- In a large bowl add beef, egg, tomato paste, worcestershire sauce, Sweet Smoked Chili Rub & Seasoning, and Chili Verde Flake Sea Salt. Mix until combined. Form into desired size patties.
- Heat a large cast iron skillet over medium heat. Brush the inside of the burger buns with 1-2 tsps of Green Chile Infused Olive Oil and toast until golden brown 2-3 minutes. Set aside.
- Increase the heat to medium high and add 2 Tbsp Green Chile Infused Olive Oil over medium high heat. Add burgers and cook 4-5 minutes on the first side or until meat is caramelized, then flip the burger and add the cheese on top and cook for another 3-4 minutes.
- Assemble the burger by placing butter lettuce, then your burger patty, caramelized onions, and 1-2 tbsp Red Pepper Jam.
