Servings: 5
Originally topped with Acai Special Sauce and Spicy Home-Cured Pickles and served with asparagus fries; those recipes aren't in the file.
Ingredients
- 1/2 oz Chia seed, ground
- 4 oz Beef broth, organic
- 16 oz Ground beef, 93% lean
- drizzle Olive oil
- 4 Sandwich thins, multigrain
- Pickles, spicy
- Lettuce, optional
- Tomato, optional
Directions
- In a small bowl, mix the ground chia seeds and beef broth. Stir well and let stand 15 minutes until thickened.
- In a second bowl, mix the ground beef with the chia mixture. Form 5 even patties and refrigerate on a sheet pan for at least 1 hour.
- Heat a nonstick saute pan with a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. Cook the patties until medium-rare, about 3 minutes per side (longer if you like them more done).
- Spread sauce on both sides of the sandwich thins, add the burger and top with pickles, lettuce and tomato.
