Servings: persons

1 pound ground chuck
1 jalapeno chile pepper, seeded and minced (wear gloves when preparing)
1 cup Spicy Tomato Salsa (recipe follows)
Sea salt and freshly ground pepper
Sea salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
4 soft corn tortillas
1 ripe avocado, pitted and sliced
1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
12 plum tomatoes, seeded and diced
1/2 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1/2 cup chopped Vidalia or other sweet onion
1 tablespoon jalapeno chile pepper, seeded and minced (wear gloves while preparing)
1/4 cup fresh lime juice
Sea salt and freshly ground pepper to taste

1
Preheat a broiler or charcoal or gas grill to medium-high heat.
2
Using a wooden spoon (or your hands, if you are wearing gloves), mix together the ground beef, jalapeno, 1/4 cup of the salsa, and salt and pepper in a large bowl, until the ingredients are evenly distributed. Form into 4 patties, a little flatter and greater in diameter than a usual burger shape.
3
Broil or grill them, flipping once, until cooked through, about 4 minutes on each side.
4
Place tortillas in microwave, two at a time, and cook on high for about 20 seconds. Arrange each burger on a warm tortilla and top with the avocado slices, shredded cheese, and additional salsa. Alternatively, wrap each burger and the toppings in a tortilla like a burrito. Serve with additional salsa on the side.
5
Mix all the ingredients in a small glass bowl. The salsa may be used immediately for the burgers, but chill it for at least an hour if serving it as a dip.
