Ingredients
- ½ onion - cut in chunks
- 2 cloves garlic - peeled
- 2 tortillas - cut in wedges
- 16 ounces ground bison
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 egg - beaten
- ½ cup chopped Hatch green chile - about 3 to 4 whole chiles
- ½ teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper
- optional - buns - avocado crema, sliced tomatoes, leaf lettuce, etc.
Instructions
- If using a grill, preheat to medium-high (375-425°).
- Purée the onion and garlic in a small food processor. Press through a strainer to remove as much liquid as possible. Add to a large mixing bowl.
- Purée the corn tortilla wedges until crumbs form (see photos in post). Add to the mixing bowl.
- Add the remaining ingredients to the bowl. Hint: I like to use a large bowl that allows plenty of movement, and my hands to combine.
- Divide bison mixture into 4 equal portions, and form 4 patties. Grill or cook in a medium-high burner. Get a good sear on the patties before turning. It will help hold them together.
- Serve immediately or tent with foil to keep them warm.
