Lettuce Wrap Burger

{WHOLE30 + PALEO + GLUTEN FREE}

The ultimate lettuce wrap burger! Made with seared burger patties, all the toppings, and a crave worthy burger sauce that you’ll want to put on everything! Whole30, paleo friendly, gluten free, dairy free, keto, and low carb.

For burgers - ground beef - Salt and pepper - avocado oil or ghee Topping options - Romaine lettuce leaves - Avocado - Tomato slices - Pickles - Cooked bacon - Cheese of choice - Sunny side up egg - Avocado oil mayonnaise - Dijon mustard - Sesame seeds

INGREDIENTS:

For burgers Divide ground beef into 4 equal parts. Form into patties that are about 3/4 inch thick, without overworking and smashing the meat too much.

Season the exterior fairly generously with salt and pepper, the same way you would season a steak before pan searing. This helps create a nice brown crust on the outside of the burgers.

Press a little dimple into the center of the patty, so they stay fairly flat when cooking and don’t dome up and shrink in size.

Preheat a large skillet (cast iron is my favorite) to medium high heat. When skillet is hot, add about 1 tablespoon avocado oil and two of the burger patties. Cook for about 3 minutes, undisturbed, on each side for medium rare burgers.
