Prep Time: 15 min
Cook Time: 10-15 minutes

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 lb ground beef
  • 1⁄4 cup onions, diced
  • 2 tablespoons cilantro, chopped 
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon cumin
  • 1/4 teaspoon chipotle chili powder 
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 4 small flour tortillas 
  • 1 cup Mexican cheese blend, shredded
  • 1 jalapeño, sliced and deseeded 
  • Sliced tomatoes
  • Sliced avocados 
  • Chipotle Mayo
1) In a bowl, add ground beef, onions, cilantro, garlic, cumin, chipotle chili powder, salt and pepper. Mix until everything is combined. Make two large burger patties (similar to the size of your tortillas). 

2) Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over high heat, reduce to medium-high and cook burgers, about 3 to 4 minutes per side. Add a few more minutes if you want them more well done. Remove burgers from skillet and set aside. 

3) Drain excess oil from pan. Evenly divide shredded cheese among 4 tortillas, and cover two with sliced jalapeños. Cook tortillas in the skillet, open faced, over medium-high heat until tortillas are crispy and cheese is melted. Remove and assemble your burger. 

4) Take bottom tortilla and place it on a serving dish, cheese side up. Top with burger patty, sliced tomatoes, avocados and chipotle mayo. Top with second tortilla, cheese side down. Cover with more chipotle mayo if you’d like, serve and enjoy!
