  • 12 hamburger buns, split, toasted
  • 12 slices tomato

Steps

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Cooking burgers over medium heat ensures juicy, well-cooked burgers; cooking them over high heat will cause burgers to shrink.
  • tip 2
    When you want to use chiles with a little less heat, choose poblano or Anaheim chiles instead of jalapeño chiles.
