Ingredients

4 servings

For the patties

1 ½ lb ground beef (80/20)
1 tbsp garlic-infused oil
3 tbsp scallion greens, thinly sliced
1 tsp worcestershire sauce
1 tsp kosher salt
½ tsp black pepper
1 tsp neutral oil (such as canola or rice bran oil)

For serving

4 gluten free burger buns
4 slices cheddar cheese (optional)
4 leaves butter lettuce (optional)
1 medium tomato, sliced into rounds
2 tbsp yellow mustard (optional)
2 tbsp mayonnaise (optional)

Instructions

1
Combine the ground beef, garlic-infused oil, scallion greens, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Mix gently with your hands until just combined — do not overwork the meat. Divide into 4 equal portions (about 6 oz each) and shape each into a patty roughly 3/4 inch thick. Press a shallow dimple in the center of each patty with your thumb to prevent doming during cooking.
2
Heat the neutral oil in a large (12-inch) skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat until shimmering. Add the patties and cook undisturbed for 4 minutes, until the underside is deep brown and releases easily from the pan.
