Mozzarella Stick Beef Burger
Juicy lean beef patty topped with a crispy air-fried mozzarella stick and zesty marinara sauce, all nestled in a toasted sprouted grain bun for a satisfying crunch.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz ground beef (93% lean)
1 stick mozzarella string cheese
1 large egg white
0.5 tbsp almond flour
0.25 tsp dried oregano
0.25 tsp garlic powder
0.25 tsp sea salt
0.25 tsp black pepper
0.5 whole sprouted grain bun
0.25 cup marinara sauce (no sugar added)
2 leaves romaine lettuce
1 slice tomato
PREPARATION
Preheat your air fryer to 400°F and lightly grease the basket.
Cut the mozzarella string cheese in half to create two smaller sticks.
In a small bowl, whisk the egg white. In another shallow dish, combine the almond flour, dried oregano, and garlic powder.
Dip each cheese stick into the egg white, then roll in the almond flour mixture until evenly coated.
Place the coated cheese sticks in the air fryer and cook for 4-5 minutes until the exterior is golden and the cheese is soft.
While the cheese cooks, season the ground beef with sea salt and black pepper, then form into a single patty.
Heat a non-stick skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat and sear the beef patty for 4-5 minutes per side until cooked to your desired level of doneness.
Lightly toast the sprouted grain bun in the same skillet or a toaster.
Warm the marinara sauce in a small saucepan or microwave-safe dish.
Assemble the burger by placing the romaine lettuce and tomato on the bottom bun, followed by the beef patty.
Top the patty with the air-fried mozzarella sticks and drizzle with the warm marinara sauce before adding the top bun.
