Cooking Steps

Prep
1
  • Thinly slice tomato.
  • Peel, then cut half the onion (whole onion for 4 servings) 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.)
Pickle jalapeños and onions
2
  • 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. Cook 1-2 min, stirring often, until sugar dissolves.
  • Remove from heat.
  • Transfer pickled jalapeños and onions, including liquid, to a small bowl.
  • Set aside in the fridge to cool.
Make patty filling and spicy mayo sauce
3
  • 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 sauce.)
Form patties
4
  • Add chorizo, half the panko (use all for 4 servings) 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 (8) 4-inch-wide patties. Divide patty filling between 2 (4) patties, then top with remaining patties.
  • Firmly pinch edges of patties together to seal in filling, then gently reshape into rounds.
Cook patties
5
  • Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high.
  • 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 2-3 min per side, until golden.
  • Remove from heat, then transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Sprinkle remaining cheese over patties.
  • Roast in the top of the oven for 6-9 min, until cooked through.**
Make salad and serve
6
  • Meanwhile, to a large bowl, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) pickling liquid and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil.
  • 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 sauce over top.
