This burger is packed with robust flavours. Avoid seasoning with salt and pepper, the chorizo and shrimp are salty enough on their own.

Chop chorizo into small, ¼-inch pieces. Heat oil in medium skillet over medium high. Sauté chorizo until browned, about 4 minutes. Remove from heat and reserve.
Whirl peppers with mayonnaise in a food processor until smooth. Scrape into a bowl and reserve. Wipe same processor clean and add shrimp. Pulse shrimp until chunky. Scrape into a bowl. Stir in ¼ cup (60 mL) mayonnaise mixture, cilantro and egg white.
Heat a skillet over medium heat. Scoop ½ cup (125 mL) shrimp mixture into the pan and gently press into a patty. Repeat with remaining shrimp mixture. Cook for 3 minutes, or until bottom is golden. Flip and continue cooking for 3 more minutes or until patty is set.
Place a piece of lettuce on each bun. Top with a shrimp burger, 1 Tbsp (15 mL) red pepper mayonnaise and sautéed chorizo.
