MARGARITA BURGER RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Make the tequila pickles: In a large, high-walled skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the carrots, jalapeño, onion, and garlic and sauté, stirring constantly, until the vegetables start to become tender but do not change color, about 3 minutes. Transfer the vegetables to a 16-ounce airtight, heat-proof container.
• Return the pan to medium heat and add the tequila, white vinegar, bay leaf, black peppercorn, oregano, sugar, and salt. Bring to a boil and cook until reduced by ⅓, about 2 minutes. Pour the mixture over the vegetables and let sit for 10 minutes. Add the ice to the container and stir until completely melted. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use. The pickles can be made up to 1 week ahead.
• Make the guacamole: In a large bowl, combine the lime juice, garlic, and Fresno chile. Let sit at room temperature for 10 minutes. Add the avocados and salt and use a fork to mash together. Cover with plastic wrap, pressing directly against the surface of the guacamole. Refrigerate until ready to use.
• Make the black bean burgers: Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C).
• Add the black beans to a large bowl and use a potato masher to break down the beans until semi-smooth, with some beans left whole for texture. Add the panko bread crumbs, cilantro, scallions, jalapeño, salt, cumin, paprika, and eggs. Stir with a wooden spoon to combine. Shape the mixture into 4 patties. Place the patties on a plate and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, place the intact burger buns on a baking sheet. Brush the top of each bun with the beaten egg, then top with the sea salt. Transfer to the oven and bake until the egg wash turns golden brown, about 5 minutes.
• Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil, then place the black bean patties in the pan in a single layer, working in batches if needed to avoid overcrowding. Cook until the patties begin to turn golden brown, about 3 minutes per side.
• Assemble the burgers: Open the buns and spoon guacamole onto each bottom bun, spreading to cover completely. Place 2 slices of queso panela over the guacamole and top with a burger patty, followed by tequila pickles. Place the top bun on top. Serve with classic margaritas.
• Enjoy!

MARGARITAS FOR A CROWD

Steps:

• Just before serving, in a half gallon pitcher combine the tequila, the minimum amount of Cointreau or Triple Sec and the lime juice. Taste and add more orange liqueur if you think your margaritas need more sweet oranginess to balance the other flavors. Remember, you're tasting it warm and undiluted; when chilled and diluted, the flavors will be mellower and the lime's tartness will be more attractive.
• Pour several tablespoons of lime juice onto a small plate and several tablespoons coarse salt onto another. Have martini glasses at hand (chill them for an extra special touch).
• As your guests ask for their margaritas, invert a glass into the plate with the lime juice to moisten rim, then lightly dip into the plate with the salt. For each drink measure 2 ounces (1/4 cup) of the margarita mixture into a cocktail shaker. If you have a 2-ounce ladle that you can keep in the pitcher, measuring goes much faster. Add ice cubes (5 cubes for 1, 8 for 2, 10 for 3). Secure the lid and top and shake vigorously for 10 to 15 seconds. Strain into the salt crusted glasses and hand off to the lucky recipients
