"Canned chiles can be put to good use and bring extra flavor to this weekend's cookout. Simply drain and warm the diced chiles before spooning them on top of a cooked burger patty."
"A perfectly executed patty and a toasted brioche or potato bun can complement instead of compete for attention. For added crunch, a fresh piece of crispy lettuce can bring texture contrast to this treat."
"Cooks who want to skip canned ingredients can roast peppers over flames or beneath a broiler to make their own spicy topping. Once roasted, the charred skins and seeds will be removed, the peppers will be diced."
"Those who want even more heat can add chile relleno on top of each burger patty in addition to the canned chiles; it can offer satisfying flavor for an easy weeknight meal."
Green chile is a key ingredient in enhancing burgers, making them iconic. Canned chiles can be used for convenience, simply warmed and spooned over cooked patties. A toasted brioche or potato bun complements the flavors, while crispy lettuce and mayo add texture and creaminess. For those seeking more heat, spicy pepper Jack cheese, pretzel buns, or crispy bacon can be added. Roasting fresh peppers is an alternative, though it requires more preparation. Chile relleno or hatch green chiles can further elevate the burger's flavor.
