How to Make Slightly Spicy Black Bean Burgers
- Drain and rinse 1 (15-ounce) can black beans.
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Add 1/2 medium onion, chopped, and 2 cloves garlic, minced. Cook until softened, about 3-5 minutes.
- Stir in 1/2 cup frozen corn, 1 teaspoon ground cumin, and 1/4 cup green chili sauce. Sauté for another 2-3 minutes.
- Transfer the onion mixture to a large bowl with the black beans. Let cool slightly.
- Use an immersion blender (or a regular blender in batches) to partially mash the bean mixture. Some chunks are okay!
- Add 1/2 cup salsa, 1 teaspoon chili powder, 1/4 cup all-purpose flour, and 1/2 cup breadcrumbs.
- Gently mix with a rubber spatula until just combined.
- Form the mixture into 4 patties.
- Refrigerate the patties for at least 30 minutes (optional, but recommended for better texture).
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Cook the patties for 4-5 minutes per side, or until heated through and nicely browned.
- Serve on toasted burger buns with your favorite toppings, such as pepper jack cheese, mayonnaise, lettuce, and tomato.
