Crispy Mozzarella Stick Beef Burger
Pan-seared grass-fed beef patty topped with almond-crusted baked mozzarella sticks and zesty marinara, all wrapped in crisp, cool butter lettuce.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Ground beef (93% lean)
2 whole Mozzarella string cheese sticks
1 large Egg white
1 tbsp Almond flour
0.5 tsp Italian seasoning
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
2 large Butter lettuce leaves
2 slices Tomato
2 tbsp Sugar-free marinara sauce
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a small baking sheet with parchment paper.
Cut the mozzarella string cheese sticks in half to create four shorter sticks.
Whisk the egg white in a small bowl, and in a separate bowl, mix the almond flour with the Italian seasoning.
Dip each cheese stick into the egg white and then roll in the almond flour mixture until evenly coated.
Place the coated cheese sticks on the baking sheet and bake for 6 minutes until the coating is golden and the cheese is soft.
Season the ground beef with sea salt and black pepper, then form it into a thick, uniform patty.
Heat a non-stick or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat and sear the patty for 4-5 minutes per side until cooked through.
Assemble the burger by placing the beef patty on the butter lettuce leaves, topping with the crispy mozzarella sticks, warmed marinara, and tomato slices before wrapping tightly.
