Smoky Grilled Beef & Cheddar Burger
Juicy lean beef patties grilled with aromatic smoked paprika and topped with melted sharp cheddar, nestled in crisp lettuce for a refreshing crunch.
INGREDIENTS
7 oz Ground beef (93% lean)
0.75 oz Sharp cheddar cheese
2 large Romaine lettuce leaves
2 slices Tomato
2 slices Red onion
1 tsp Olive oil
0.5 tsp Smoked paprika
0.25 tsp Garlic powder
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
PREPARATION
In a medium bowl, combine the ground beef with smoked paprika, garlic powder, sea salt, and black pepper, mixing gently with your hands until just combined.
Form the beef mixture into a single thick patty, pressing a slight indentation into the center to prevent bulging during cooking.
Heat the olive oil in a cast-iron skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Place the patty in the hot pan and sear for 4-5 minutes on the first side until a deep golden crust forms.
Flip the burger and immediately top with the sharp cheddar cheese; cover the pan with a lid for 2-3 minutes to melt the cheese while the burger finishes cooking to your desired doneness.
Lay the large romaine lettuce leaves on a plate to act as the base.
Place the cooked cheeseburger onto the lettuce and top with the fresh tomato and red onion slices before folding the lettuce over to serve.
