Ingredients
- 1 lb lean ground beef (at least 90% lean)
- salt and pepper to taste
- 4 slices cheddar cheese
- 1 tomato sliced
- 1/4 red onion thinly sliced
- jalapeno peppers thinly sliced (fresh of pickled)
- 8 cabbage leaves large
- 2 Tbsp mayonnaise
- 1 Tbsp ketchup
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 400°F.
- Form burgers: Divide the ground beef into 4 patties and season both sides with salt and pepper.
- Bake: Place patties on a lined baking sheet and cook for about 15–18 minutes, or until cooked through.
- Add cheese: Place cheddar slices on each burger during the last 2 minutes so they melt.
- Make sauce: Mix the mayonnaise and ketchup together in a small bowl.
- Prepare cabbage: Carefully peel off large cabbage leaves and rinse. Pat dry.
- Assemble: Place a burger in a cabbage leaf and top with tomato, red onion, jalapeños, and a drizzle of the mayo-ketchup sauce.
