Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef (85% lean)
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
- 4 large leaves lettuce leaves (such as iceberg or romaine)
- 1 medium, sliced tomato
- 0.5 medium, sliced red onion
- 4 pickle slices
- 1 small, sliced avocado
- 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
Instructions
In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix gently until just combined.
Divide the beef mixture into two equal portions and shape each into a patty, making a small indentation in the center of each to prevent bulging during cooking.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Once the oil is hot, add the beef patties. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until the burgers reach your desired level of doneness.
While the patties are cooking, prepare the lettuce wraps by washing and drying the lettuce leaves.
Slice the tomato, red onion, and avocado.
Once the burgers are done, remove them from the skillet and let them rest for a few minutes.
Assemble the hamburgers by placing each patty on a large lettuce leaf. Top with tomato slices, red onion slices, pickle slices, and avocado. Fold the lettuce around the toppings to create a wrap.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Whole30 Classic Homemade Hamburger!
