directions
- I like to make the salsa earlier to let the flavors work together but it isn't needed. To make the salsa whisk first 3 ingredients in medium bowl to blend. Mix in next 4 ingredients. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Can cover and refrigerate up to 8 hours.
- For burgers: Stir shallot, cilantro, jalapeño, garlic, salt, black pepper, paprika, and cumin in large bowl to blend. Add lamb and mix gently to combine. Shape mixture into four 1/2-inch-thick patties. Arrange on small baking sheet.
- Grill buns, cut side down, until golden, about 2 minutes; transfer to work surface. Place lettuce and large spoonful of salsa on each bun bottom. Grill burgers until slightly charred and cooked to desired doneness, about 4 minutes per side for medium-rare. Place 1 burger on each bun. Top each with mayonnaise and bun top. Serve with remaining salsa.

I get paid to read snail mail and email. It is an awesome free portal where you get paid for what you are already doing on the web.
I live in Utah with my husband and son. They are my taste testers and are very happy that I love to cook. During the summer we camp and cook via dutch oven. My falls and springs are filled with canning. When I am actually working I do medical coding from home so I can take care of my son.
One thing I appreciate about Zaar is it keeps me from saying.
