Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 g ground beef (grass-fed, lean)
- 2 tbsp coconut aminos
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- 0.5 tsp sea salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
- 2 tbsp avocado oil
- 8 lettuce leaves
- 1 sliced tomatoes
- 0.5 sliced red onion
- 1 sliced avocado
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine ground beef, coconut aminos, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, sea salt, and black pepper.
Mix the ingredients gently using your hands or a spatula until well incorporated. Be careful not to overmix as this can result in tough burgers.
Divide the beef mixture into four equal portions and shape each portion into a patty about 3/4 to 1 inch thick.
Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat and add avocado oil.
Once the oil is hot, place the patties into the skillet or on the grill. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on the first side without pressing down, ensuring a nice sear forms.
Flip the patties and cook for an additional 3-4 minutes for medium-rare, or longer to your desired doneness.
Remove the patties from the heat and let them rest for a couple of minutes.
Assemble the burgers by placing each patty on a lettuce leaf and topping with tomato slices, red onion, and avocado slices. Use another lettuce leaf to top the burger as a bun.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Paleo-friendly beef burgers!
