Jalapeno Cheese Burgers

By carvalhohm

Ingredients

• 1 1/4 pounds ground beef
• 1/2 cup (2 ounces) shredded Monterey Jack or Cheddar cheese with Jalapenos
• 2 tablespoons dry bread crumbs
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat grill to medium-high heat.

In medium-sized bowl, combine all ingredients; mix well.

Divide mixture into 4 equal amounts. Make 4 patties and grill 8 to 12 minutes, or until desired doneness, turning halfway through grilling.

Notes:

If you prefer, you can use 1/2 cup Swiss or Cheddar cheese for creamy cheeseburger without jalapeno bite.

Garnish burger with fresh or pickled jalapeno slices.
