How to Make Black Bean And Quinoa Burgers
- Rinse 1 cup quinoa under cool water for 2 minutes in a fine-mesh sieve to remove any bitterness.
- Combine rinsed quinoa and 1 1/3 cups water in a rice cooker and cook according to manufacturer's instructions.
- Once cooked, transfer the quinoa to a food processor fitted with a metal blade.
- Add 1 (15-ounce) can black beans (rinsed and drained), 1/2 cup chopped red onion, 1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro, 2 tablespoons olive oil, 2 cloves minced garlic, 1-2 teaspoons minced jalapeño (adjust to taste), 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon chili powder, 1/2 teaspoon cumin, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
- Puree until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- Form the mixture into six 1/2-inch thick patties.
- Place 1/2 cup breadcrumbs in a shallow bowl.
- Press each patty into the breadcrumbs, turning to coat both sides.
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat.
- Cook the patties in batches for 4-5 minutes per side, or until they are browned and heated through.
