INGREDIENTS

8 oz 93% lean ground beef

0 tsp avocado oil

0.5 cup yellow onion

0.5 whole sprouted grain bun

1 leaf romaine lettuce

2 slices tomato

1 tbsp yellow mustard

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

0.25 tsp garlic powder

PREPARATION

• 1

  Thinly slice the yellow onion into half-moons.

• 2

  Heat the avocado oil in a cast-iron skillet over medium heat and sauté the onions until they are golden brown and soft, about 8-10 minutes.

• 3

  While onions cook, divide the ground beef into two 4-ounce portions and roll them into loose balls without overworking the meat.

• 4

  Remove the onions from the skillet and set aside; increase the heat to medium-high.

• 5

  Place the beef balls into the hot skillet and immediately use a heavy spatula to press them down firmly until they are very thin.

• 6

  Season the patties with sea salt, black pepper, and garlic powder while they sear.

• 7

  Cook for 2 minutes until the edges are dark and crispy, then flip and cook for another 60 seconds.

• 8

  Briefly toast the sprouted grain bun face-down in the skillet to soak up the remaining flavor.

• 9

  Assemble the burger by placing the lettuce and tomato on the bottom bun, followed by the two smashed patties, the caramelized onions, and a dollop of yellow mustard.
