Sashi Made A Recipe: The Paranormal Pepper Jack-tivity Burger (from Bob's Burgers)

 

My favorite TV show paid homage to one of my favorite found footage movies! Sure, I could have just added pepper jack cheese to a burger patty and called it good, but I decided to make it but extra by seasoning the patty with some Southwest flavors and did a simple condiment by mixing salsa and sour cream. It was so good, it was scary. 😂

• 1/2 tsp coriander
• 1/2 tsp oregano

1. In a small bowl, stir together the salsa and sour cream. Refrigerate until needed.
2. In a medium bowl, gently mix together the ground beef, garlic powder, cumin,  coriander and Worcestershire until blended. Form into 4 large patties, each 3/8" thick.
3. Heat the large nonstick over med-high heat and add the patties. Cook for 3-4 minutes, flip, and cook for 3-4 minutes more until the patties are cooked through. Flip again then cover with the cheese slices and turn off the heat. Cover to melt the cheese for 2 minutes.
