Classic Beef Burger with Caramelized Onions
Pan-seared lean beef patty topped with slow-cooked, sweet caramelized onions and melted cheddar, served in crisp butter lettuce leaves for a satisfying crunch.
INGREDIENTS
6.5 oz 93% lean ground beef
0.5 cup yellow onion
1 tsp olive oil
1 slice sharp cheddar cheese
2 large butter lettuce leaves
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 tsp dijon mustard
1 slice tomato
PREPARATION
Heat the olive oil in a small non-stick skillet over medium-low heat.
Add the thinly sliced yellow onions and cook for 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they reach a deep golden brown color.
While the onions caramelize, form the ground beef into a single thick patty and season both sides evenly with sea salt and black pepper.
Heat a cast-iron skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat and sear the beef patty for 4-5 minutes on the first side.
Flip the patty and cook for another 3-4 minutes, placing the cheddar cheese slice on top during the final minute of cooking.
Cover the skillet with a lid briefly to ensure the cheese is fully melted and the beef reaches your desired doneness.
Lay out the butter lettuce leaves on a plate and spread the Dijon mustard onto the center of the bottom leaf.
Place the cheesy beef patty onto the lettuce, then layer with the caramelized onions and the fresh tomato slice.
Fold the lettuce leaves around the burger to create a wrap and serve immediately.
