INGREDIENTS

8 oz 93% lean ground beef

0.5 whole whole wheat burger bun

0.5 medium yellow onion

0 tsp extra virgin olive oil

1 leaf romaine lettuce

1 slice tomato

1 tsp dijon mustard

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

0.25 tsp garlic powder

PREPARATION

• 1

  Heat the extra virgin olive oil in a small skillet over medium-low heat.

• 2

  Add the thinly sliced yellow onions and cook, stirring occasionally, for 15-20 minutes until they are soft and golden brown.

• 3

  In a mixing bowl, gently combine the ground beef with sea salt, black pepper, and garlic powder until just incorporated.

• 4

  Form the beef into a single 1-inch thick patty, making a slight indentation in the center with your thumb to ensure even cooking.

• 5

  Heat a cast-iron skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat and sear the patty for 4-5 minutes per side for medium doneness.

• 6

  Lightly toast the whole wheat bun in the same pan or a toaster until the edges are golden and fragrant.

• 7

  Spread the Dijon mustard on the bottom bun, then layer with the romaine lettuce, tomato slice, beef patty, and the warm caramelized onions.
