1
Prepare the Beef Patty
In a bowl, mix the ground beef with salt and black pepper. Form the mixture into two equal patties.
2
Cook the Patties
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the beef patties and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired doneness.
3
Add Cheese
In the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty. Cover the skillet to help melt the cheese.
4
Toast the Buns
While the patties are cooking, slice the hamburger buns and toast them on another skillet until golden brown.
5
Assemble the Cheeseburger
On the bottom half of each toasted bun, layer lettuce and sliced tomato. Place the cooked patty with melted cheese on top, and finish with the top half of the bun.
