Preparation Steps
1
In a bowl, combine the ground beef with salt, freshly ground black pepper, and Worcestershire sauce. Mix thoroughly, then divide into four equal portions and form into patties about 2 cm thick.
2
Heat a skillet or grill over medium-high heat. Brush the patties with a little olive oil and cook on both sides for about 3-4 minutes, or until nicely seared.
3
During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty. Cover the skillet to allow the cheese to melt.
4
In another skillet, melt the butter and add the minced garlic. Sauté for 1 minute, then add the shrimp and cook for 2-3 minutes, until golden brown.
5
Meanwhile, halve the hamburger buns and toast them in a dry skillet or brushed with a little butter until golden brown on the inside.
6
Prepare the vegetables: slice the tomato and red onion into thin rounds.
7
In a bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise and Dijon mustard, then spread it on the cut sides of the toasted buns.
8
Assemble the hamburger: place lettuce leaves on the bottom bun, followed by the cheesy beef patty, the sautéed shrimp, tomato slices, and red onion. Top with the other half of the bun.
9
Serve immediately, preferably with french fries or a fresh salad. Tip: For an even richer flavor, squeeze a little fresh lemon juice over the shrimp before serving.
