Ingredients
- 1 lb lean ground beef (93% lean)
- 1 tbsp chili powder
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- 1 tsp paprika
- 0.5 tsp garlic powder
- 0.5 tsp onion powder
- 0.5 tsp kosher salt
- 0.25 tsp black pepper
- 4 pieces whole wheat burger buns
- 4 pieces lettuce leaves
- 4 pieces tomato slices
- 4 pieces red onion slices
- 0.25 cup low-fat or fat-free Greek yogurt (optional topping)
- 1 tsp hot sauce (optional)
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, chili powder, ground cumin, paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, kosher salt, and black pepper. Mix gently with your hands or a spoon until all the spices are evenly distributed.
Step 2
Divide the seasoned ground beef mixture into 4 equal portions. Shape each portion into a patty about 3/4 inch thick. Make a small indentation in the center of each patty with your thumb to help them cook evenly.
Step 3
Heat a grill pan, skillet, or outdoor grill over medium-high heat. Lightly oil the cooking surface with a small amount of cooking spray or brush with olive oil.
Step 4
Cook the burger patties for about 5–6 minutes per side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness. For safety, the internal temperature should reach at least 160°F (71°C).
Step 5
While the burger patties are cooking, toast the whole wheat buns on the grill (optional) for 1–2 minutes until lightly golden.
Step 6
Assemble the burgers by placing a lettuce leaf on the bottom half of each toasted bun. Add a burger patty, followed by a slice of tomato and a slice of red onion. Add a dollop of Greek yogurt mixed with hot sauce if desired for a spicy topping.
Step 7
Top with the remaining bun halves and serve immediately. Pair with a side salad or baked sweet potato fries for a complete meal!
