Applebee's Quesadilla Burgers Copycat
I have never eaten applebees quesadilla burgers but i can say that these burgers are awesome! You can adapt this to make as many burgers as you need. I used a little over a pound of hamburger for 4 burgers and had left over seasoning.
Steps
For hamburgers:.
Combine all seasoning ingredrients.
Use one heaping tblsp of seasoning mix per pound of hamburger meat.
Mix into hamburger meat until well combined.
Fry or grill.
Assembling the complete burger:.
Heat a large frying pan over medium heat.
Spread butter on one side of each tortilla.
Put one tortilla , butter side down in the hot pan.
Sprinkle the cheeses evenly onto the center of the tortilla in the pan- but not all the way to the edges.
Put the tomato , onion , bacon and jalapeno over the cheese , add the cooked seasoned burger and cover with the other tortilla butter side up.
When the bottom is browned , about 45-90 seconds , flip the quesadilla and grill the other side.
Remove the quesidilla from the pan and using a pizza cutter , cut throught the middle.
Serve.
