INGREDIENTS

6 oz Ground beef (93% lean)

0.5 oz Sharp cheddar cheese

0.5 whole Whole wheat burger bun

1 leaf Romaine lettuce

2 slice Tomato

2 slice Red onion

0 tbsp Avocado oil

0.25 tsp Sea salt

0.25 tsp Black pepper

1 tsp Dijon mustard

PREPARATION

• 1

  Gently form the ground beef into a 1-inch thick patty, being careful not to overwork the meat to ensure it remains juicy and tender.

• 2

  Season both sides of the beef patty evenly with the sea salt and black pepper.

• 3

  Heat the avocado oil in a cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until it begins to shimmer.

• 4

  Place the patty in the hot skillet and sear for 4 minutes without moving it, allowing a deep brown crust to form.

• 5

  Flip the burger and immediately place the cheddar cheese slice on top; cover the pan with a lid for 2 minutes to melt the cheese perfectly.

• 6

  While the burger rests for a few minutes, lightly toast the whole wheat bun in the same skillet until the edges are golden brown.

• 7

  Spread the Dijon mustard on the bottom half of the toasted bun, followed by the romaine lettuce, tomato slices, and red onion.

• 8

  Place the cheesy beef patty onto the prepared base and finish with the top bun before serving.
