Latin Burgers with Caramelized Onions
Latin cuisine prides itself on the depth and diversity of flavors that result from using local and readily available ingredients. Latin food is sometimes known for being spicy, it’s true – but it’s also hearty, sweet, savory, refined, comforting, healthy, smoky, salty, and over-the-top delicious – just like this dish. These zesty burgers combine chorizo, a spicy jalapeño relish and Maggi Liquid Seasoning for a super-craveable Latin flavor explosion!

In food processor, combine jalapeños, half of the red onion, vinegar, 1 1/2 tbsp Maggie Liquid Seasoning, honey and garlic; pulse until vegetables are finely chopped. Refrigerate for 1 hour before using.
