Step 1: Make the Patties
Mix ground beef with garlic powder, onion powder, salt, pepper, and Worcestershire (if using).
Form into 4–5 thick patties.
Step 2: Cook the Patties
Grill or pan-fry over medium-high heat, about 4–5 minutes per side or until desired doneness.
Step 3: Add Toppings
In the last 2 minutes of cooking, top each patty with green chile and a generous handful of cheese.
Cover with a lid (or tent with foil) to melt the cheese.
Step 4: Serve
Serve hot on a plate or in toasted buns with your favorite burger fixings.
💡 Pro Tip: Roast and peel your own green chiles for extra flavor! Add a spoonful of crema or a dab of mayo to buns if making sandwiches. 🌶️🔥
