Spicy Chopped Cheese Sandwich

Crunchy, soft, and buttery, popcorn is the ultimate happy food.

Recipe Summary Spicy Chopped Cheese Sandwich

The chopped cheese sandwich originated in New York City. It is not spicy and is traditionally made on a flat top grill. I do not have a flat top and also wanted to incorporate some heat so here is my not so traditional version.

Ingredients | Spicy Cheese Popcorn

1 tablespoon butter

¼ cup chopped onions

12 ounces lean ground beef

1 tablespoon Sriracha sauce

salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

3 slices American cheese

2 hoagie buns, split and toasted

1 cup shredded lettuce

1 roma tomato, thinly sliced

Directions

Melt butter in a small skillet over medium-high heat. Add onions and cook until onions are soft and starting to caramelize, about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.

In a large bowl combine ground beef and Sriracha sauce. Mix well unto Sriracha is evenly distributed. Form mixture into two patties and season with salt and pepper.

Heat a large cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Add hamburger patties and cook 5 minutes or until a crust forms on the bottom. Flip patties over and cook 3 minutes.

Using a wide spatula, break patties up into large pieces. Sprinkle cooked onion in between the spaces of the hamburger pieces. Layer cheese over the beef, and cook 2 minutes or until cheese is melted.

Divide meat mixture evenly between the toasted hoagie rolls. Top each with shredded lettuce and sliced tomato.
