Tex-Mex Hamburger
The Tex-Mex hamburger is a fusion of Mexican and American flavors, combining spicy taco seasoning with classic juicy ground beef. It began to spread in the southern states of the USA in the 1980s, especially in Texas, where the Mexican influence strongly impacted the flavors of the dishes. The freshness of the jalapeño pepper and cilantro perfectly complements the rich flavor of the grilled meat, while the creaminess of the avocado softens the overall effect. If you like spicy, flavorful food, this burger is sure to become your favorite!

Preparation Steps
1
Thinly slice the tomato, red onion, and jalapeño pepper. Peel and slice the avocado, then drizzle with lime juice to prevent browning.
2
In a bowl, combine the ground beef with taco seasoning, chili powder, salt, and pepper. Form into two equal-sized patties.

Heat a skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Add a little olive oil and cook the patties for about 3-4 minutes per side, until nicely browned.
4
During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty to melt.
5
Halve the hamburger buns and toast the cut sides in a dry skillet or on the grill for about 1 minute, until lightly golden.
6
Spread sour cream on the bottom bun, then top with iceberg lettuce and the cooked patty.
7
Add the tomato slices, red onion, black beans, and jalapeño pepper.
8
Top with avocado slices, sprinkle with fresh cilantro, and cover with the top bun.
9
Serve immediately for the best flavor and texture.
