Ingredients
Method
Techniques
- romaine lettuce
Slice the lettuce very thin, wash it in a bowl and spin dry in a salad spinner.
- 1 whole onion
- 1 whole red bell pepper
Halve the onion and slice it not too thin; slice the bell pepper to the same size.
- olive oil
- salt
- 4 oz ground beef
Cook the onion and pepper in a cast iron skillet over medium heat with a little olive oil and a pinch of salt until they begin to soften; transfer to a bowl.
Put the ground beef in the hot pan over medium-high heat, lowering to medium if it over-browns but not lower, or it steams.
- freshly ground black pepper
- garlic powder
- ground coriander
Flatten the beef and season with salt, black pepper, garlic powder and ground coriander; cook until browned on one side, 3 or 4 minutes.
Flip, season with a little salt and chop it up; cook about 30 seconds and flip once more, leaving it slightly pink.
- shredded cheddar
- longer buns
Top with shredded cheddar, chop the meat through it, lower the heat a little and let the cheese melt, about 2 minutes.
Melting the cheese
- pickled jalapeno peppers
Layer the shredded lettuce, sauteed onions and peppers, pickled jalapenos, then the chopped beef and cheese.
