Step-by-Step Method
Mix the ingredients
Combine the ground beef, chopped green chili, and onion in a bowl. Mix briefly with your hands—overmixing can make the patties tight.
Shape the patties
Divide into 4 equal portions and flatten into burger patties. Press a small dimple in the center so they cook more evenly.
Heat the pan or grill
Warm a nonstick skillet or grill over medium to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the surface only if needed.
Cook
Place the patties on the hot surface. Cook about 4–6 minutes per side, depending on thickness. Flip when the first side releases and browns.
Rest and serve
Let the burgers rest for 2 minutes off the heat. Serve in buns or on a plate; add extra onion or greens if you like.
