Ingredients

> 1 small red onion
> 1 tbsp canola oil
> 2 jalapeños
> 1 (4 oz) can chopped green chilies
> 1 1/4 lbs 85% lean ground beef
> 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
> 1 lime
> 1/4 cup mayonnaise
> 4 hamburger buns
> 8 leaves lettuce

Steps

1
Thinly slice the onion. Brush a large grill pan with the oil and heat on medium-high. Add onions and grill 7–8 min., until tender.
2
Meanwhile, finely chop 1 jalapeño and drain the green chiles. In a medium bowl, add ground beef, chopped jalapeños, green chiles, salt, and pepper. Mix to combine. Divide beef into 4 equal portions and shape into patties. When onions are done, transfer to a plate. Add burgers to pan and grill 3–4 min. per side, until desired doneness.
3
Meanwhile, chop the cilantro. Thinly slice remaining jalapeño. Into a small bowl, zest half of lime and squeeze all the juice. Stir in mayonnaise and chopped cilantro.
4
Toast the buns, if desired. Spread cut sides of buns with cilantro mayonnaise. Top with 2 lettuce leaves, burger, grilled onion, and sliced jalapeño.
