Let’s Make Some Burgers!
Step 1: Patty Prep
Shape the ground beef into four equal patties. Season generously with salt and pepper.
Step 2: Sauté the Veggies
In a skillet over medium heat, drizzle olive oil. Add the sliced bell pepper and onion. Cook until softened and slightly caramelized (about 5-7 minutes), stirring occasionally.
Step 3: Grill Time!
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Grill the patties for 4-5 minutes per side, or to your desired doneness. During the last minute, top each patty with a slice of provolone cheese to let it melt beautifully.
Step 4: Assemble & Enjoy!
Toast the burger buns lightly on the grill. Place each cheeseburger patty on a bun bottom, top with the sautéed peppers and onions, and finish with the bun top.
Keto & Low-Carb Options
Following a keto or low-carb diet? No problem! Swap the burger buns for lettuce wraps or Portobello mushroom caps. Use low-carb cheeses like Swiss or cheddar instead of provolone.
Pro Tips for Burger Bliss
- For extra flavor, marinate the beef in Worcestershire sauce or your favorite steak seasoning before forming patties.
- Spice things up with sliced jalapeños or a dash of hot sauce in the peppers and onions.
- Experiment with different cheeses! Monterey Jack, mozzarella, or even blue cheese can add a unique twist.
