Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground beef, 80% lean
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 4 slices Cheddar cheese, sliced
- 4 large Eggs
- 2 tablespoons Butter
- 1 whole Avocado, sliced
- 8 leaves Lettuce leaves
- 1 medium Tomato, sliced
- 0.5 cup Pickles, sliced
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
Instructions
Preheat your grill or stovetop grill pan to medium-high heat.
In a mixing bowl, combine ground beef, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Gently mix using your hands until just combined.
Divide the beef mixture into four equal portions. Shape each portion into a patty about 1/2 inch thick.
Brush the grill with olive oil. Place the patties on the grill and cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side.
Flip the patties and place a slice of cheddar cheese on each. Cover with a lid or an aluminum foil tent to melt the cheese, and cook for another 4-5 minutes or until the burgers are cooked to your desired doneness.
Transfer the patties to a plate and let them rest for a few minutes.
In a large non-stick skillet, add butter and melt over medium heat. Carefully crack the eggs into the skillet, being sure not to break the yolks.
Cook the eggs to your preferred level of doneness. For sunny side up, cook until the whites are set, about 3-4 minutes. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
To assemble the burgers, place a lettuce leaf on the serving plate, followed by a tomato slice.
Place a burger patty on top of the tomato, followed by the avocado slices and pickles.
Carefully place the fried egg on top of each burger.
Finish with another lettuce leaf to act as the 'top bun'. Serve immediately.
