Mozzarella Stick Beef Burger with Marinara
Pan-seared lean beef patty topped with a gooey melted mozzarella stick and vibrant marinara sauce, served on a toasted whole grain bun.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Ground beef (93% lean)
0.5 piece Part-skim mozzarella string cheese
0.5 whole Whole wheat burger bun
0.25 cup Marinara sauce
0 tsp Olive oil
0.25 tsp Sea salt
0.25 tsp Black pepper
0.25 tsp Garlic powder
0.5 cup Baby arugula
PREPARATION
Preheat a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.
In a small bowl, season the ground beef with sea salt, black pepper, and garlic powder, then form into one thick patty.
Place the patty in the hot skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes on the first side.
Flip the burger and immediately place the mozzarella string cheese (sliced in half lengthwise) on top of the patty.
Cover the skillet with a lid for the final 2-3 minutes of cooking to ensure the cheese is gooey and melted.
While the burger finishes, lightly toast the whole wheat bun in a toaster or separate pan.
Warm the marinara sauce in a small saucepan or microwave until heated through.
Assemble the burger by spreading half the marinara on the bottom bun, followed by the baby arugula, the cheesy beef patty, and the remaining marinara.
