Keto Taco Cheeseburgers
Fire up the grill for this quick 20-minute Keto Taco Cheeseburgers recipe! Zesty ground beef, melty cheese, and all your favorite taco flavors.
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 pounds ground beef
- 2 1/2 ounces diced red bell pepper
- 1 jalapeño seeded and diced
- Juice of 1/2 a lime
- Homemade taco seasoning
- 1/2 to 1 tablespoon chipotle hot sauce
- 5 slices Monterey Jack cheese optional
For The Mexican Ketchup:
- 2 tablespoons sour cream
- 2 tablespoons low-carb salsa
- 3 tablespoons zero-sugar ketchup
- Juice of half a lime
Instructions
- To a large bowl, add the beef, peppers, lime juice, taco seasoning, and hot sauce. Use your hands to work the ingredients into an even mixture. Be careful not to over-mix.
- Divide the mixture into 5 even balls. Pat together between your palms to form an even burger patty.
- Preheat a grill to medium-high heat, about 550°F. When the temperature is reached, add the patties to the grill. Close the lid and let cook for 4 to 5 minutes. Flip and repeat. If the burger does not loosen from the grill grate easily, let cook a few more seconds before trying to flip.
- Add the cheese slices to the top of the burgers, close the lid, and let melt for 30 to 60 seconds.
- Transfer the burgers to a plate and let rest 5 minutes before serving.
- For the Mexican ketchup, mix the sour cream, salsa, ketchup and lime juice in a small bowl. Use as a dipping sauce or topping for the burgers.
