Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground beef
- 4 large Egg
- 4 large Lettuce leaves
- 4 slices Cheddar cheese slices
- 1 medium Avocado
- 1 medium Tomato
- 0.5 small Onion
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
Directions
Step 1
In a large bowl, season the ground beef with salt and black pepper. Mix well and divide into four equal portions.
Step 2
Shape each portion into a patty, ensuring they are slightly larger than your cheese slices as they will shrink during cooking.
Step 3
Heat a tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add patties and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until desired doneness is reached.
Step 4
Place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty during the last minute of cooking and cover the pan to let the cheese melt.
Step 5
Remove the cooked patties and let them rest on a plate.
Step 6
In the same skillet, add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil and crack the eggs. Fry until the whites are set but the yolks are still runny, about 3-4 minutes.
Step 7
While the eggs are cooking, slice the avocado, tomato, and onion into thin slices.
Step 8
Assemble the burger by placing a lettuce leaf on a plate, followed by a cheesy beef patty, a few slices of avocado, tomato, and onion.
Step 9
Top each burger with a fried egg and serve immediately.
