Ingredients
- 500 grams lean ground beef (95% lean)
- 60 grams whole wheat bread crumbs
- 2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce
- 0.5 cup onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 large egg white
- 0.5 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 8 buns whole wheat slider buns
- 8 lettuce leaves
- 8 slices tomato slices
- 8 slices avocado slices
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the lean ground beef, whole wheat bread crumbs, low-sodium soy sauce, chopped onion, minced garlic, egg white, black pepper, and kosher salt.
Step 2
Gently mix the ingredients with your hands until well combined. Be careful not to overwork the mixture to keep the burgers tender.
Step 3
Divide the mixture into 8 equal portions. Shape each portion into a small patty, about 1/2-inch thick.
Step 4
Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Step 5
Once the oil is shimmering, add the patties to the skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (70°C) and they are cooked through.
Step 6
While the patties are cooking, lightly toast the whole wheat slider buns to enhance their flavor and texture.
Step 7
To assemble the burgers, place each cooked patty on a bottom bun, and top with a lettuce leaf, a tomato slice, and an avocado slice.
Step 8
Finish with the top bun and serve immediately. Enjoy your heart-healthy mini beef burgers!
