Guacamole Hamburgers with Monterey Jack
Source of Recipe
Internet
List of Ingredients
4 servings
1 1/2 pounds ground chuck
1 (2-ounce) piece Monterey Jack, cut into 4 pieces
4 teaspoons finely chopped seeded pickled jalapeno chiles
For the guacamole:
1 avocado (preferably Haas)
2 1/2 teaspoons fresh lemon juice
1/3 cup finely diced seeded tomato
3 tablespoons minced scallion
1/4 teaspoon ground cumin
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro, or to taste
4 sesame hamburger buns or English muffins, split and toasted
Recipe
Handling the chuck as little as possible, divide it into fourths, shape each fourth into a ball, and with your thumb make a depression in the center or each ball. Fill each depression with a piece of the cheese and 1 teaspoon of the chiles and form the meat around the cheese mixture into a 1-inch patty.
Season the hamburgers with salt and black pepper and grill them on oiled hot grill pan for 5 minutes on each side for medium-rare meat.
Make the guacamole while the hamburgers are grilling: Halve, pit, and peel the avocado, in a bowl mash the flesh coarse with a fork, and stir in the lemon juice, tomato, scallion, cumin, cilantro, and salt and pepper, to taste.
Transfer the hamburgers to the buns and top them with the guacamole.
