Smashed-in-a-Flash Taco Burgers

• In a medium bowl, combine beef* and Fajita Spice Blend. • Form beef mixture into two equal-size balls (four balls for 4 servings); season all over with salt and pepper.

• Heat a drizzle of oil in a large, preferably nonstick, pan over medium-high heat. Add beef and flatten each ball with a spatula to create very thin patties. (TIP: Do so carefully; oil may splatter a bit.) Cook to desired doneness, 3-4 minutes per side. (Don’t worry if the patties aren’t perfectly round— those irregular edges will turn crispy.) • In the last 1-2 minutes of cooking, top patties with Mexican cheese blend and cover pan to melt cheese.
