INGREDIENTS

4.5 oz Ground beef (93% lean)

0.5 whole Whole wheat burger bun

0 tsp Extra virgin olive oil

0.25 tsp Sea salt

0.25 tsp Black pepper

0.25 tsp Garlic powder

2 slices Red onion

2 slices Tomato

1 leaf Romaine lettuce

1 tbsp Yellow mustard

PREPARATION

• 1

  In a bowl, gently combine the ground beef with sea salt, black pepper, and garlic powder, being careful not to overwork the meat.

• 2

  Shape the beef into one large, even patty, approximately 1 inch thick, and create a small indentation in the center with your thumb to prevent bulging.

• 3

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

• 4

  Place the patty in the hot skillet and sear for 4-5 minutes per side for medium doneness, or until it reaches your desired internal temperature.

• 5

  While the beef cooks, split the whole wheat bun and place it cut-side down in a separate dry pan over medium heat until golden and toasted.

• 6

  Spread the yellow mustard on the bottom bun, then layer the romaine lettuce, tomato slices, and red onion.

• 7

  Place the cooked beef patty on top of the vegetables, cover with the top bun, and serve immediately.
