I stole this Chipotle Slider recipe from myself. It’s a version of the Beef Chipotle Burgers that I’ve made for a while, just in slider version. And then topped with another recipe I stole from myself — Frisee, Radicchio, and Escarole Salad with Citrus Dressing, which kind of acts like a slaw. And then finished with yet another recipe I stole from myself, Blue Cheese Dip. I’m either a terrible thief or a terrific recipe repurposer. You decide.
If you are looking to ramp up your game day party game, these sliders are a great candidate. They are adorable and utterly inhalable but also slightly lofty.
Servings: 8 People These cute little Chipotle sliders are kind of sophisticated as sliders go, but still totally game day party worthy.
Ingredients 1x2x3x
- ▢2 pounds ground beef (80/20%)
- ▢2 tablespoons pureed chipotles in adobo sauce (see Note)
- ▢½ teaspoon Kosher salt
- ▢3 tablespoons minced shallot
- ▢20 slider rolls (approximately)
- ▢½ recipe Frisée Radicchio and Escarole Salad with Citrus Dressing
- ▢½ cup Blue Cheese Dip
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the beef, pureed chipotles in adobo, salt, and onion. Hands are best for this.
- Using 1/4 cup at a time, form the mixture into small patties.
- Heat a grill pan over medium-high heat. Pan grill the burgers for 3 to 3 minutes on each side until they are done to your liking. Serve on the buns (toasted if you wish) with the salad/slaw and some blue cheese dip.
Notes
To make pureed chipotles in adobo, simply buy a can of chipotles in adobo sauce, dump the whole thing into a food processor, and purée. The sauce will keep in a tightly covered container in the fridge for about 2 months, at least.
