Crispy Mozzarella Stick Beef Burger
Pan-seared lean beef patty topped with a golden, gooey melted mozzarella stick and fresh garden vegetables on a toasted whole grain bun.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Ground beef (93% lean)
0.5 whole Mozzarella string cheese stick
1 tbsp Almond flour
0.5 whole Whole wheat burger bun
1 leaf Romaine lettuce
2 slice Tomato
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
0.25 tsp Garlic powder
0.25 tsp Avocado oil
PREPARATION
Season the ground beef with sea salt, black pepper, and garlic powder, then form into a single patty about one inch thick.
Slice the mozzarella string cheese stick in half lengthwise and dredge each piece in the almond flour until lightly coated.
Heat the avocado oil in a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Place the beef patty in the skillet and sear for 4 to 5 minutes per side until it reaches your desired level of doneness.
During the last 2 minutes of cooking the beef, add the almond-flour-coated mozzarella stick halves to the skillet.
Sear the cheese sticks for about 45 seconds per side until they form a golden, crispy crust and begin to soften.
Remove the beef and cheese from the pan and briefly toast the whole wheat bun face-down in the remaining juices for 30 seconds.
Assemble the burger by placing the lettuce and tomato on the bottom bun, followed by the beef patty and the crispy mozzarella sticks.
