INGREDIENTS

7 oz Ground beef (93% lean)

1 oz Cheddar cheese

1 tsp Olive oil

2 large leaves Romaine lettuce leaves

2 slices Tomato

2 slices Red onion

2 slices Dill pickle

1 tbsp Yellow mustard

0.25 tsp Sea salt

0.25 tsp Black pepper

PREPARATION

• 1

  Shape the ground beef into one thick, even patty, ensuring the center is slightly indented to prevent bulging during cooking.

• 2

  Season both sides of the patty evenly with the sea salt and black pepper for maximum flavor.

• 3

  Heat the olive oil in a cast-iron skillet or heavy-bottomed pan over medium-high heat until the oil is shimmering.

• 4

  Place the patty in the hot skillet and sear for 4-5 minutes until a deep, flavorful brown crust forms on the bottom.

• 5

  Flip the patty and immediately place the cheddar cheese slice on top, covering the pan with a lid for 1 minute to melt.

• 6

  Remove the patty from the heat and let it rest for 2 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.

• 7

  Arrange the romaine lettuce leaves on a plate as a fresh base, then top with the juicy cheeseburger patty.

• 8

  Garnish the plate with tomato slices, red onion, and dill pickles, then finish with a dollop of yellow mustard.
