This isn't your average burger. It's a burger made Baja-style! No grill? No worries! This burger is made in a skillet and is easy to make! My mom made this when we were young. It's a burger creation made with corn chips and spices served up on French bread.
Ingredients:
2 pounds ground beef
1 cup corn chips (such as fritosĀ®, crushed
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 (28 ounce) can tomato sauce
1/2 onion, chopped
1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
8 (6 inch) french bread rolls, split in half lengthwise
Directions:
1. Mix the ground beef and crushed corn chips; form into 8 oblong patties; season with salt and pepper. In a small bowl, mix together the tomato sauce, onion, garlic salt, and chili powder.
2. Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat.
3. Cook the patties in the hot skillet 4 to 5 minutes; flip and cook an additional 4 minutes. Pour the tomato sauce mixture into the skillet as the burgers finish cooking; simmer for another 4 to 5 minutes. Top each burger with Cheddar cheese and allow to melt. Place burgers on bread and ladle sauce on the patties before closing each sandwich.
