Tip


Directions

Summer Salsa

Burgers

  1. Preheat the grill to medium heat. Tear off a large square of aluminum foil and add a square of parchment paper to keep food from sticking. Place fruits and vegetables in centre and add chili powder. Wrap sides over the food.
  2. Fold the foil onto itself, pressing firmly. Tightly seal the papillotes at the ends. Handle carefully so as not to tear the foil. Papillotes are properly sealed when they swell up during cooking.
  3. Cook on grill for 7–8 minutes. Sprinkle steaks with cumin and season with salt and pepper. Cook 4–5 minutes on the hot grill, turning them over just once. Heat the buns, fill with steaks and garnish with summer salsa, Swiss cheese and lettuce.

Tip

  1. Cheese alternatives: Canadian Mozzarella, Cheddar, Provolone.
