Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound lean ground beef
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon ground mustard
- 1 large egg
- 0.25 cup unsalted breadcrumbs
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 4 buns low sodium burger buns
- 4 leaves lettuce leaves
- 1 medium sliced tomato
- 0.5 medium sliced onion
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the lean ground beef, onion powder, garlic powder, black pepper, ground mustard, egg, and breadcrumbs. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well incorporated.
Divide the mixture into four equal portions and shape each into a patty, about 3/4 inch thick.
Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Add the patties to the skillet and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 160°F (70°C) for well-done burgers, ensuring they are brown and cooked through with no pink remaining.
While the burgers are cooking, prepare the buns by lightly toasting them on the grill or in a toaster.
Assemble the burgers by placing a lettuce leaf on each bottom bun, followed by a cooked patty.
Top the patty with sliced tomato and onion.
Finish with the top bun, serve immediately, and enjoy your low sodium burger!
