For a spicier kick, leave some seeds in the serrano pepper or add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the ground beef mixture. If you don't have pepper jack cheese, Monterey Jack or cheddar cheese can be substituted. Make the guacamole just before serving to prevent browning. If making ahead, press plastic wrap directly onto the surface to minimize air exposure. For a smoky flavor, grill the burgers over charcoal instead of using a skillet.

01
StepIn a large bowl, combine the ground beef, half of the minced onions, shredded pepper jack cheese, bread crumbs, and eggs. Mix well with your hands until everything is evenly distributed. (Prep time: 10 minutes)
02
StepDivide the mixture into 12 equal portions and form them into patties, ensuring they are uniform in size and thickness for even cooking. (Prep time: 5 minutes)
03
StepPrepare the pico de gallo by combining the chopped tomatoes, the second half of the minced onions, chopped cilantro, half of the lime juice, and half of the minced serrano pepper in a separate bowl. Stir well to combine. (Prep time: 10 minutes)
04
StepCover the pico de gallo and refrigerate to allow the flavors to meld while you prepare the rest of the ingredients. (Chill time: 30 minutes)

StepHeat a skillet or grill over medium-high heat. (Prep time: 2 minutes)
