Instructions:

1. Prepare the Burger Patties:

In a bowl, combine the ground beef with the chili powder, cumin, salt, and pepper. Make burger patties out of the four equal pieces of dough. For plant-based burgers, follow the directions on the package for how to cook them.

2. Grill or Cook the Patties:

On the stove, heat up your pan or grill over medium-high heat. The patties should be cooked for four to five minutes on each side for medium-rare. If you want them more done, cook them for longer. If using plant-based patties, follow the package instructions.

3. Prepare the Chile Topping:

In a separate bowl, mix the drained diced green chiles, mayonnaise, shredded cheddar cheese, minced garlic, and chopped cilantro (if using). Season with salt and pepper to taste.
