Instructions
- Thinly slice tomato.
- Peel, then cut half the onion (whole onion for 4 ppl) into 1/4-inch rounds. Separate into rings.
- Thinly slice half the jalapeño into 1/4-inch rounds, removing seeds for less heat.
- Core, then finely chop remaining jalapeño. (TIP: We suggest using gloves when prepping jalapeños!).
- Add vinegar, jalapeño rounds, onions, 1 tsp (2 tsp) sugar and 2 tbsp (4 tbsp) water to a small pot. Season with salt.
- Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring often, until sugar dissolves, 1-2 min.
- Remove from heat.
- Transfer pickled jalapeños and onions, including liquid, to a small bowl.
- Set aside in the fridge to cool.
- Meanwhile, combine chopped jalapeños, cream cheese and half the cheddar cheese in another small bowl. (NOTE: This is your patty filling.)
- Combine spicy mayo and 1 tsp (2 tsp) water in a third small bowl. (NOTE: This is your spicy mayo drizzle.)
- Add beef, panko and 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) salt to a medium bowl. (TIP: If you prefer more tender patties, add an egg to the mixture.)
- Season with pepper, then combine.
- Form into four 4-inch-wide patties (8 patties for 4 ppl). Divide patty filling between 2 patties (4 patties for 4 ppl), then top with remaining patties.
- Firmly pinch edges of patties together to seal in filling, then gently reshape into rounds.
- Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat.
- When the pan is hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then patties. (NOTE: Don't overcrowd the pan; cook patties in 2 batches if needed.)
- Sear until golden-brown, 2-3 min per side.
- Remove from heat, then transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Sprinkle remaining cheese over patties.
- Bake in the top of the oven until cooked through, 6-9 min.**
- Meanwhile, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) pickling liquid and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil to a large bowl.
- Season with salt and pepper, then whisk to combine.
- Add spring mix, then toss to coat.
- Drain pickled jalapeños and onions, then discard remaining pickling liquid.
- Divide salad between plates.
- Top with tomatoes, patties and pickled jalapeños and onions.
- Drizzle spicy mayo drizzle over top.
