Description
Smash Burger Bowl: An Incredible Ultimate Recipe for 2023
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb ground beef (80/20 for the best flavor)
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 4 cups mixed greens (spinach, arugula, or lettuce)
- 1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved
- 1 avocado, diced
- ½ cup pickles, sliced
- ½ cup shredded cheese (cheddar or your favorite)
- ¼ cup red onion, thinly sliced
- ½ cup burger sauce (or your favorite dressing)
- Optional toppings: bacon bits, jalapeños, or hot sauce
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, season the ground beef with salt and black pepper. Mix gently to combine.
- Divide the beef into four equal portions and shape them into balls. Do not overwork the meat to keep it tender.
- Preheat a large skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. A cast-iron skillet works best for a good sear.
- Once the pan is hot, place the beef balls in the pan, leaving space between each. Use a spatula to smash each ball down flat.
- Cook for about 3-4 minutes until a crust forms on the bottom. Flip the patties and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes until cooked through.
- In a serving bowl, layer the mixed greens as the base. Top with smashed burger patties, cherry tomatoes, avocado, pickles, shredded cheese, and red onions.
- Drizzle the burger sauce over the top of the assembled bowl.
- Add any optional toppings you prefer, such as bacon bits or jalapeños, for extra flavor.
- Enjoy your Smash Burger Bowl while the patties are still warm!
