Preparation Steps
1
Combine the ground beef with salt and pepper. Gently form into 4 equal-sized patties. TIP: Keep the meat cold to help retain its moisture during cooking.
2
Heat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
3
In a separate pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Sauté the garlic until fragrant. Add the spinach and cook for 1-2 minutes, or until wilted. TIP: Don't overcook the spinach; it should retain its vibrant green color.
4
Toast the cut sides of the hamburger buns on the grill pan or in a toaster.
5
Prepare the vegetables: Slice the tomatoes and red onion, and wash the lettuce leaves.
6
Assemble the burgers: Place lettuce on the bottom bun, followed by the goat cheese topped beef patty, sautéed spinach, tomato slices, and red onion. Top with the other half of the bun.
7
Serve immediately with freshly made sweet potato fries or a green salad. TIP: For extra flavor, place the goat cheese on the patty just before it's done cooking, allowing it to melt slightly.
