Spicy Southwest Pork Burgers
1 lb. ground pork
2 Tbsp. finely chopped onion
1 tsp. chile powder
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. ground cumin
1/8 tsp. pepper
1 jalapeno chile, seeded and finely chopped
Salsa
Low fat sour cream

Grill the patties about 4 inches from medium coals for 15 to 20 minutes, turning them once, until pork is done. If you'd like a more casual meal, spread the salsa and low fat sour cream on whole-wheat buns and serve like hamburgers.

Set oven control to broil. Spray broiler pan rack with nonstick cooking spray.
Mix all ingredients except salsa and sour cream. Shape into 4 patties, each about 1/2 inch thick.

Place patties on rack in broiler pan. Broil with tops 3 to 5 inches from heat 10 to 15 minutes, turning once, until pork is well done (170 degrees). Top with salsa and sour cream. Sprinkle with fresh cilantro if desired.
