Ingredients
- 500 grams Ground beef
- 50 grams Gluten-free breadcrumbs
- 1 large Egg
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 0.5 medium Onion, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 teaspoon Cumin
- 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 4 pieces Gluten-free sandwich buns
- 1 medium Avocado, sliced
- 4 pieces Lettuce leaves
- 1 large Tomato, sliced
- 4 tablespoons Mayonnaise (gluten-free)
- 2 tablespoons Pickled jalapeños (optional)
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, gluten-free breadcrumbs, egg, minced garlic, finely chopped onion, parsley, cumin, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all the ingredients are evenly incorporated.
Step 2
Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape them into patties about 1.5 cm (half an inch) thick.
Step 3
Heat a skillet or grill pan over medium heat and add olive oil. Once the oil is hot, cook the patties for about 5-7 minutes on each side or until they are browned on the outside and fully cooked inside (internal temperature should reach at least 71°C or 160°F).
Step 4
While the patties are cooking, prepare the gluten-free sandwich buns by toasting them lightly on a separate pan or toaster, if desired.
Step 5
Assemble each torta by spreading 1 tablespoon of gluten-free mayonnaise on the bottom half of the bun. Layer with lettuce, a cooked beef patty, sliced avocado, tomato, and optional pickled jalapeños. Place the top half of the bun on the assembled layers.
Step 6
Serve immediately and enjoy your Gluten-Free Tortas de Carne!
