Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams ground beef
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
- 4 slices cheddar cheese
- 4 leaves lettuce leaves
- 1 medium tomato, sliced
- 4 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons dijon mustard
- 1 medium avocado, sliced
- 0.5 medium onion, sliced
Instructions
Begin by preparing the ground beef for patties. In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly distributed.
Divide the beef mixture into four equal portions and shape each portion into a patty about 1 inch thick.
Heat a large non-stick skillet or grill over medium-high heat. Add the coconut oil and allow it to melt and coat the surface evenly.
Place the beef patties on the skillet, making sure they do not touch each other. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side or until a rich brown crust forms.
Flip the patties over and immediately place a slice of cheddar cheese on top of each patty. Cover the skillet with a lid and allow the patties to cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until the cheese is melted and the burgers reach desired doneness.
While the patties are cooking, prepare the other burger components. Rinse and pat dry the lettuce leaves. Slice the tomato and avocado. Prepare onion slices if not done yet.
For each burger, lay a lettuce leaf on a serving plate. Place a cooked cheeseburger patty on top of the lettuce leaf.
Top the cheeseburger with tomato slices, onion slices, and avocado slices.
Finish by adding a tablespoon of mayonnaise and half a tablespoon of dijon mustard on top. You can spread this on the lettuce leaf to help everything stick better.
Cover with another lettuce leaf and gently press down. Repeat for the remaining burgers.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Keto Classic Beef Cheeseburger!
