INGREDIENTS

6 oz 93% lean ground beef

0.5 whole whole wheat burger bun

1 ounce part-skim mozzarella cheese

1 tbsp grated parmesan cheese

0 tsp extra virgin olive oil

1 cup fresh arugula

2 slice tomato

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

0.25 tsp garlic powder

0.5 tsp dried oregano

PREPARATION

• 1

  Season the ground beef with sea salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and dried oregano, then shape into a thick patty.

• 2

  Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and sear the beef patty for 4-5 minutes per side until fully cooked.

• 3

  Roll the mozzarella cheese in the grated parmesan, pressing the cheese into the surface to create a coating.

• 4

  Place the parmesan-crusted mozzarella in the skillet during the last 2 minutes of cooking, turning until the outside is golden and crispy.

• 5

  Lightly toast the whole wheat bun in the skillet or a toaster until warm and slightly crisp.

• 6

  Assemble the burger by layering the arugula and tomato on the bottom bun, followed by the beef patty and the crispy mozzarella stick.
