Keto Taco Cheeseburgers
Ingredients
- 1.5 pounds ground beef
- 2.5 ounces diced red bell pepper
- 1 jalapeño seeded and diced
- juice of 1/2 lime
- homemade taco seasoning
- 1/2 to 1 tablespoon chipotle hot sauce I used this
- 5 slices Monterey Jack cheese optional
Instructions
- To a large bowl, add the beef, peppers, lime juice, taco seasoning, and hot sauce. Use your hands to work the ingredients into an even mixture. Be careful not to over mix.
- Divide the mixture into 5 even balls. Pat together between your palms to form an even burger patty.
- Preheat a grill to medium high heat, about 550 degrees. When the temperature is reached, add the patties to the grill. Close the lid and let cook 4 to 5 minutes. Flip and repeat. If the burger does not loosen from the grill grate easily, let cook a few more seconds before trying to flip.
- Add the cheese slices to the top of the burgers, close the lid, and let melt for 30 to 60 seconds.
- Transfer the burgers to a plate and let rest 5 minutes before serving.
Notes
Mexican Ketchup: mix 2 tablespoons sour cream, 2 tablespoons low carb salsa, and 3 tablespoons zero sugar ketchup, and the juice of 1/2 lime in a small bowl. Stir to combine. Use as dipping sauce or topping for burgers, tacos, or chicken.
