Carne Asada Burgers image

I saw Bergy had a recipe for Carne Asada Burgers, and while they weren't quite what I wanted, they inspired me to make up my own. We thought they were delicious! I am very much a cheeseburger person, but I didn't miss the cheese at all. In fact, I think it would not be as good with cheese as it was without it, except maybe pepper jack. Prep time includes marinading time.

Time 1h15m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/4 cup lime juice, plus
2 tablespoons lime juice
1/4 cup olive oil, plus
2 tablespoons olive oil
salt & pepper
2 dashes cumin
2 dashes garlic powder
4 lean frozen beef burger patties, thawed
2 bunches green onions, trimmed to about 3-4-inch long
1/4 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup thick salsa (I used Pace Chipotle Thick & Chunky Salsa)
1 avocado, peeled and thinly sliced
4 buns

Steps:

  • Combine 1/4 c lime juice, 1/4 c olive oil, salt, pepper, cumin, and garlic powder in a large ziplock bag. Add beef patties in a single layer and lay flat to marinade. Marinade 1-2 hours, turning to marinade both sides evenly.
  • Combine 2 tbsp lime juice, 2 tbsp olive oil, salt, pepper, cumin, and garlic powder in a small ziplock bag. Add green onions; marinade 1-2 hours, shaking now and then.
  • Combine salsa and mayonnaise and mix well; refrigerate sauce until needed.
  • Grill beef patties over gas or coals until cooked to desired doneness (about 12-15 minutes for 1/2 inch patties over hot coals for medium-well).
  • Grill green onions for a couple of minutes, until cooked and just charred around the edges. Toast buns if desired.
  • Assemble burgers by spreading salsa sauce on buns, topping with beef patties, grilled green onions, and avocado slices.
