Mozzarella Stick Beef Burger with Marinara
Pan-seared lean beef patty topped with a crispy herb-crusted mozzarella stick and zesty sugar-free marinara on a toasted whole-grain bun.
INGREDIENTS
5 oz 93% lean ground beef
1 large egg
0 tbsp almond flour
0.25 tsp dried oregano
0.25 tsp garlic powder
1 whole part-skim mozzarella cheese stick
0 tsp extra virgin olive oil
0.5 whole whole wheat burger bun
2 tbsp sugar-free marinara sauce
0.25 cup fresh arugula
0.13 tsp sea salt
0.13 tsp black pepper
PREPARATION
Cut the mozzarella stick in half and dredge each piece in the whisked egg, then roll in a mixture of almond flour, oregano, and garlic powder.
Place the coated mozzarella sticks in an air fryer at 400°F for 5 minutes until the exterior is golden and the cheese is soft.
Season the ground beef with sea salt and black pepper, then form it into a single thick patty.
Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat and sear the beef patty for 4-5 minutes per side until cooked through.
Lightly toast the whole wheat bun in the skillet or a toaster until warm and slightly crisp.
Layer the arugula on the bottom bun, place the beef patty on top, and add the crispy mozzarella sticks.
Spoon the warm marinara sauce over the cheese sticks and finish with the top bun.
