A delightful twist on the classic cheeseburger, featuring spicy jalapeños and creamy avocado for a flavor-packed experience.
Combine the ground beef, chopped red onion, parsley, minced garlic, diced jalapeño, salt, and pepper in a mixing bowl.
Mix gently to avoid overworking the meat, which can make the patties tough.
Form the mixture into four equal patties, about 3/4 inch thick. Make a small indentation in the center of each patty.
The indentation helps the patties cook evenly and prevents them from puffing up.
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat and clean the grates. Lightly oil the grates to prevent sticking.
Ensure the grill is hot before placing the patties to achieve a good sear.
Grill the patties for about 5-6 minutes per side, or until cooked to your desired doneness. Add a slice of cheese during the last minute of cooking.
Avoid pressing down on the patties while grilling to retain their juices.
Slice the avocado and prepare the lettuce leaves.
Use a spoon to scoop out the avocado for clean slices.
Toast the burger buns on the grill for about 30 seconds, cut side down.
Watch closely to prevent the buns from burning.
Assemble the burgers by placing the patties on the bottom buns, followed by avocado slices and lettuce. Top with the other half of the bun.
Feel free to add your favorite condiments or extra toppings.
Serve the burgers warm and enjoy!
Pair with a side of fries or a fresh salad for a complete meal.
