Classic Beef Burger with Cheddar
Pan-seared lean beef patty topped with melted sharp cheddar and served on a toasted whole wheat bun with crisp, refreshing vegetables.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz ground beef (93% lean)
0.5 oz sharp cheddar cheese
0.5 medium whole wheat bun
0.5 tsp olive oil
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
1 cup romaine lettuce
1 slice tomato
1 slice red onion
PREPARATION
Gently shape the ground beef into a single patty about 1/2-inch thick, being careful not to overwork the meat.
Season both sides of the patty evenly with the sea salt and black pepper.
Heat the olive oil in a cast-iron skillet or non-stick pan over medium-high heat until shimmering.
Place the patty in the skillet and sear for 4 minutes until a deep brown crust forms.
Flip the burger and immediately place the cheddar cheese slice on top of the patty.
Cover the pan with a lid for 2-3 minutes to melt the cheese while the burger finishes cooking to your desired doneness.
While the meat rests for a moment, lightly toast the whole wheat bun in the same skillet or a toaster.
Place the shredded romaine lettuce on the bottom bun, followed by the cheesy beef patty, tomato slice, and red onion.
Top with the remaining bun half and serve immediately.
