1
Prepare the Patties
In a bowl, mix the ground beef with salt and black pepper. Form the mixture into two equal-sized patties.
2
Cook the Patties
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the patties and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired doneness.
3
Prepare the Toppings
While the patties are cooking, slice the tomato and onion. Wash and dry the lettuce leaf.
4
Assemble the Burger
Once the patties are cooked, place each patty on a burger bun. Top with lettuce, tomato slices, and onion. Add the top bun.
5
Serve
Serve the burgers immediately with your choice of side.
