Ingredients

• 1 pound ground beef
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
• 0.5 teaspoon onion powder
• 4 slices cheddar cheese slices
• 4 leaves large lettuce leaves
• 4 slices sliced tomato
• 4 tablespoons mayonnaise
• 2 tablespoons dijon mustard
• 2 tablespoons butter

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix well with your hands or a fork until the seasonings are evenly distributed.

Step 2

Divide the seasoned beef into 4 equal portions and shape them into patties about 3/4-inch thick.

Step 3

Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat and melt the butter.

Step 4

Once the butter is melted and the pan is hot, add the patties to the skillet.

Step 5

Cook the burgers for about 3-4 minutes on the first side, without moving them, until a crust forms.

Step 6

Flip the patties and place a slice of cheddar cheese on each burger. Continue to cook for another 3-4 minutes, or until the cheese melts and the burgers are cooked to your desired doneness.

Step 7

While the burgers are cooking, prepare your toppings. Wash the lettuce leaves and pat them dry. Slice the tomato.

Step 8

Once the burgers are done, remove them from the pan and let them rest for a minute.

Step 9

On a clean plate, place a lettuce leaf. Top with a burger patty, followed by a slice of tomato.

Step 10

Spread 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise and 1/2 tablespoon of dijon mustard on top of each burger.

Step 11

Cover with another lettuce leaf and serve immediately.
