Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
- 4 slices pepper jack cheese
- 4 hamburger buns
- 1 avocado
- 1 tbsp lime juice
- 0.25 cup chipotle mayo
- 4 lettuce leaves
- 1 tomato
- 0.5 red onion
Instructions
In a mixing bowl, combine ground beef, cumin, smoked paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well and divide into 4 equal portions. Shape each portion into a patty about ¾ inch thick.
Heat a grill or stovetop grill pan over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness.
In the last 2 minutes of cooking, place a slice of pepper jack cheese on each patty. Cover with a lid or foil to melt the cheese.
While the patties cook, slice the avocado and toss with lime juice to prevent browning. Slice the tomato and red onion into thin rounds.
Toast the hamburger buns lightly on the grill or in a toaster.
Spread chipotle mayo on the cut sides of each bun. Place a lettuce leaf on the bottom bun, followed by a tomato slice, a cooked patty with melted cheese, avocado slices, and a few rings of red onion. Top with the other half of the bun.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Santa Fe Burger with your favorite side dish!
