  • Garlic powder - 1 teaspoon
  • Onion powder - 1 teaspoon
  • Salt - 1 teaspoon

  • Gluten-free burger buns - 2
  • Cheddar cheese slices - 2
  • Lettuce leaves - 2
  • Tomato - 1, sliced

Steps

  1. In a bowl, mix the ground beef with smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper until well combined.
  2. Divide the mixture into two equal parts and shape them into burger patties.
  3. Preheat a grill or skillet over medium heat and cook the patties for about 5-6 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired doneness.
  4. During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty to melt.
  5. While the burgers are cooking, toast the gluten-free burger buns on the grill or in a toaster until lightly golden.

  7. Top with the other half of the bun and serve immediately.
