1
Prepare the Beef Patty
In a bowl, season the ground beef with salt and black pepper. Form it into two equal-sized patties.
2
Cook the Patties
Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties 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 top of each patty. Cover the skillet to help melt the cheese.
4
Toast the Buns
While the cheese is melting, split the burger buns and toast them in the skillet for about 1-2 minutes until golden brown.
5
Assemble the Cheeseburger
On the bottom half of each bun, layer lettuce, the beef patty with melted cheese, tomato slices, and pickles. Top with the other half of the bun.
