Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 tsp chili powder
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
- 4 large eggs
- 1 avocado
- 1 lime
- 4 burger buns
- 1 tbsp cooking oil
- 2 tbsp butter
Instructions
In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, chili powder, ground cumin, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly using your hands, but do not overwork the meat.
Divide the seasoned beef into four equal portions and shape each into a patty, slightly larger than the burger buns. Make a small indent in the center of each patty with your thumb to help it cook evenly.
Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of cooking oil and cook the burger patties for 3-4 minutes per side or until they achieve your desired level of doneness. Transfer to a plate and let rest.
While the patties are cooking, cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh. Slice it thinly and squeeze lime juice over the slices to prevent browning.
Toast the burger buns in a separate skillet or toaster. Spread butter on the cut sides for an extra layer of flavor.
Once the patties are done, wipe down the skillet and lower the heat to medium. Add a small amount of oil if necessary. Crack the eggs into the skillet, one at a time, and cook to preference (sunny-side-up recommended for a runny yolk). Season the eggs with a pinch of salt.
To assemble the burgers, place each cooked beef patty on the bottom half of a toasted bun. Top with avocado slices, then carefully place a fried egg on top.
Add the top bun, pressing down gently. Serve immediately and enjoy your flavorful Mexican Burgers with Avocado Fried Eggs!
