I really love Mexican food, and this Mexican burger is absolutely amazing! A well-seasoned, juicy beef patty, melty cheese, and creamy guacamole—all packed into one delicious burger bun. YUM!
Mexican Burgers
I just made Indian Burgers 2 days ago, and they were AMAZING; my family really enjoyed them for lunch. And this Tex-Mex burger recipe is even better; it is loaded with Mexican flavors and super easy to make.
The secret to the best burgers is to season the beef patties well and cook them just until they are juicy and tender, NOT dry!
I like to use lettuce for a fresh, green crunch. I also used store-bought fresh guacamole to save time.
You'll Need
Complete information on ingredients and quantities is in the recipe card at the end of the post.
Ground beef: I use ground beef with (80% lean, 20% fat). The fat in the meat creates that juicy texture that you want your burger to have.
Garlic: It adds flavor to the burger patties.
Breadcrumbs: It improves the patty's texture.
Egg: They help bind together the ground beef and breadcrumbs, so you’ll be able to form them into burger patties.
Seasonings: I seasoned the ground beef with salt, black pepper and paprika, cinnamon, ground cumin and ground coriander.
Cheddar cheese: I prefer mature cheddar cheese.
Hamburger buns: A burger will not be a burger without hamburger buns. I use regular white buns.
Lettuce: It Adds crunch and color to your burger.
Guacamole: Adds great flavor and give’s the burger its distinct Mexican taste. You can use store-bought or homemade Guacamole. Optional, I add a ½ Jalapeño to my store-bought guacamole for a spicy flavor.
How to Make Mexican Burger - Step By Step
One: Mix the ground meat with breadcrumbs, garlic, egg, and all the seasonings (coriander, cumin, cinnamon, paprika, salt, and pepper) in a large bowl until combined and form the mixture into burger patties.
Tip: To keep the patties from breaking, you may let them chill in the fridge for 20 to 30 minutes before cooking/grilling.
Two: Heat the oil in a large frying pan on medium heat and fry the patties for 4-5 minutes on each side.
Three: When you flip the burger to the other side, put a slice of cheese on the patty and let it melt while the patty is cooking.
Tip: Make sure that you do not undercook or overcook your meat. A one-inch burger patty took me approximately 4 minutes per side to cook on medium heat.
Four: Cut the buns open and add lettuce, a burger patty topped with cheese and, finally, a teaspoon of guacamole and serve!
