INGREDIENTS

8 oz Ground beef (93% lean)

0.5 whole Whole wheat hamburger bun

0.25 tsp Sea salt

0.25 tsp Black pepper

0.25 tsp Garlic powder

1 leaf Romaine lettuce

2 slices Tomato

1 slice Red onion

1 tbsp Yellow mustard

PREPARATION

• 1

  In a mixing bowl, gently combine the ground beef with sea salt, black pepper, and garlic powder until the spices are evenly distributed.

• 2

  Divide the beef into two 4-ounce portions and shape them into round patties, pressing a small thumbprint into the center of each to ensure even cooking.

• 3

  Preheat a cast-iron skillet or non-stick grill pan over medium-high heat.

• 4

  Place the patties in the hot pan and sear for 4 to 5 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches your desired level of doneness.

• 5

  While the meat rests, place the split whole wheat bun face down in the skillet for 30-60 seconds until the edges are golden and toasted.

• 6

  Assemble the burgers by placing the patties on the bottom buns, then layering with lettuce, tomato slices, red onion, and a spread of yellow mustard.
