Instructions

Burgers:

Combine beef, lime juice, orange juice, onion, cilantro, garlic, jalapeños, chilli flakes, cumin, paprika and salt in a large bowl. Mix well with hands for about 1 minute, until the meat has combined with the other ingredients.
Divide the meat mixture into 4 equal parts and firmly mould them into round patties about 1-inch thick. Drizzle a skillet or non stick pan with a small amount of oil; preheat pan over medium-high heat. When pan is hot, sear the burgers for 5 to 6 minutes on each side until cooked to desired level of doneness.
In the last 1 or 2 minutes of cooking, add the sliced cheese over the patties and allow the cheese to melt.
Build burgers with lettuce (optional), beef, guacamole and pico de gallo.

Guacamole:

Cut the avocados in half lengthwise. Remove the pit from the avocado and discard. Remove the avocado from the skin and place the avocado flesh into a bowl.
Add the lemon juice, lime juice, red onion, chives, jalapeño, salt and pepper. Mash with a fork until half smooth and creamy. Taste and add more salt and pepper if desired.
