INGREDIENTS

7.5 oz ground beef (93% lean)

0.5 whole whole-grain bun

0.5 cup yellow onion

0 tsp extra virgin olive oil

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

1 leaf butter lettuce

1 slice tomato

PREPARATION

• 1

  Heat olive oil in a small skillet over medium-low heat. Add sliced onions and cook, stirring occasionally, for 15-20 minutes until golden brown and sweet.

• 2

  While onions cook, form the ground beef into a single thick patty and season both sides with sea salt and black pepper.

• 3

  Heat a cast-iron skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Sear the beef patty for 4-5 minutes per side until it reaches your desired level of doneness.

• 4

  Lightly toast the whole-grain bun in the same pan used for the burger to soak up the savory juices.

• 5

  Place the lettuce and tomato on the bottom bun, top with the beef patty and a generous heap of caramelized onions, then close with the top bun.
