Sizzling Street Food Fajita Burger

Allergens

Milk (in sour cream)

Ingredients

• 1 pound ground beef
• 2 tablespoons fajita seasoning mix
• 4 large flour tortillas
• 4 slices Monterey Jack cheese
• 1 cup shredded lettuce
• 1 small tomato, thinly sliced
• 1/2 medium red onion, thinly sliced
• 1 avocado, sliced
• Sour cream, for serving
• Fresh cilantro leaves, for garnish

Instructions

1. In a large bowl, combine ground beef and fajita seasoning mix until well mixed. Form the meat mixture into four equal patties.
2. Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium high heat. Cook patties for 4 minutes per side or until desired doneness. Add cheese slices on top of each patty during the last minute of cooking, allowing it to melt.
3. Meanwhile, warm tortillas in a dry skillet or microwave for 20 seconds.
4. Assemble burgers by placing a cooked patty on each tortilla, then topping with lettuce, tomato, red onion, avocado, and a dollop of sour cream. Finish with a sprinkle of fresh cilantro leaves.

Chef’s Insight

Make sure to press the meat mixture gently into patties to avoid overworking the ground beef, which can result in a dry burger.

Notes
