Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces gluten-free hamburger buns
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 pieces ripe avocado
- 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
- 1 large tomato
- 4 pieces lettuce leaves
- 4 tablespoons gluten-free mayonnaise
- 0.5 small red onion
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
Instructions
Preheat your grill or a grill pan over medium-high heat.
In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently with your hands until just combined. Divide the mixture into four equal portions and shape them into four burger patties.
Brush the grill or grill pan with a little olive oil to prevent sticking. Place the burger patties on the grill and cook for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness.
While the burgers are cooking, halve the avocados and remove the pits. Scoop out the flesh into a small bowl, add the lemon juice, and mash with a fork until smooth. Season with a pinch of salt if desired.
Slice the tomato and the red onion thinly.
Toast the gluten-free hamburger buns on the grill for about 1-2 minutes until lightly golden.
To assemble the burgers, spread 1 tablespoon of gluten-free mayonnaise on the bottom half of each bun.
Place a lettuce leaf on top of the mayonnaise, followed by a cooked burger patty.
Add a dollop of mashed avocado on the burger, then top with slices of tomato and onion.
Finish with the top half of the bun and serve immediately. Enjoy your Gluten-Free California Burger!
