Prepare the Ranchero Salsa Fresca first as the flavors need to blend for at least one hour.

How To Cook Ranchero Burger Platter

Step #1. In a non-reactive medium bowl, combine all fresh ingredients for the salsa. Chill at least one hour. Taste and adjust salt if needed.

Step #2. Mix ground beef, onion, oregano, cumin, salt and pepper, to taste. Shape into 6 ½” thick round patties.

Step #3. Grill or broil 5-7 minutes on each side or until cooked to desired doneness.

Step #4. When ready to serve, arrange a layer of tortilla chips in the middle of each serving plate.

Step #5. Top with a generous portion of Ranchero Salsa Fresca. Add a layer of crisp lettuce slightly larger than the size of your burger.

Step #6. Add the burger to the center of the plate. Top with sour cream. Garnish with cilantro. Enjoy!
