Whether you're following a low carb or keto lifestyle, this double-decker burger promises satisfaction without sacrifice.
In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix well until the seasoning is evenly distributed.
Divide the seasoned ground beef into 4 equal portions and shape them into patties, flattening each to about 1/2 inch thick.
Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat and add the olive oil.
Place the patties in the skillet and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness.
About 1 minute before the patties are done, place a slice of cheddar cheese on top of each patty to melt.
While the patties are cooking, wash and prepare the lettuce leaves, tomato slices, and red onion rings. Slice the tomato and onion thinly.
In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise and mustard to create a simple dressing.
Assemble the burgers by layering two lettuce leaves as a base, followed by a beef patty with melted cheese, a couple of tomato slices, a few onion rings, and two pickle slices.
Add another cheese-topped patty and top it with a dollop of the mayonnaise-mustard dressing.
Finish with more lettuce leaves to replace the top bun. Serve immediately for the best taste.
