Ingredients
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 0.5 tsp sea salt
- 0.25 tsp black pepper
- 2 tbsp avocado oil
- 4 large leaves romaine lettuce
- 1 small, sliced red onion
- 1 large, sliced tomato
- 4 slices whole30 compliant pickles
- 0 optional whole30 compliant hot sauce
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine ground beef with garlic powder, onion powder, sea salt, and black pepper. Mix until ingredients are well integrated.
Step 2
Divide the beef mixture into four equal parts and shape each portion into a round patty about 1/2 inch thick.
Step 3
Heat avocado oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Step 4
Once the oil is shimmering, carefully place the patties into the skillet. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side, until a brown crust forms.
Step 5
Flip the patties using a spatula and continue to cook for an additional 4-5 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches at least 160°F for medium doneness.
Step 6
While the patties are cooking, prepare the condiments: wash the lettuce leaves, and slice the tomato and red onion.
Step 7
Remove the patties from the skillet once cooked and let them rest on a plate for a couple of minutes.
Step 8
To assemble each burger, use a large romaine lettuce leaf as the base, place a beef patty on top, followed by slices of tomato, red onion, and pickles. Drizzle with Whole30 compliant hot sauce if desired.
Step 9
Finish by folding the lettuce over the top to encase the fillings, using an additional lettuce leaf if necessary, to securely wrap the burger.
Step 10
Serve immediately and enjoy your Whole30 Classic Burger!
