1 jalapeño, stemmed and roughly chopped
Ingredient note
A serving of up to about one small jalapeño is low in fructose. This recipe contains only about 1/4 of a jalapeno per serving, making it likely Low Fructose. If you prefer to always avoid jalapeño, please tap it and change its rating to Red.
¼ cup fresh cilantro leaves and tender stems
2 tbsp fresh lime juice
½ tsp salt

For the patties

1 lb ground pork
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp dried oregano
½ tsp smoked paprika
½ tsp garlic powder
½ tsp salt
¼ tsp black pepper
¼ tsp red pepper flakes (optional)
1 tbsp avocado oil

Instructions

1
Quarter the tomatillos and place them in a blender or food processor along with the jalapeño, cilantro, lime juice, and 1/2 tsp salt. Pulse until the salsa is slightly chunky but cohesive, about 8–10 short pulses. Taste and adjust salt, then set aside.
2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground pork, cumin, oregano, smoked paprika, garlic powder, 1/2 tsp salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes, if using. Mix with your hands just until the spices are evenly distributed — do not overwork the meat.
