Teriyaki Pineapple Burger

The Teriyaki Pineapple Burger combines juicy, grilled beef with a sweet and tangy teriyaki glaze, topped with fresh pineapple and crisp lettuce, all served in a keto-friendly format. This burger is a delightful fusion of flavors that satisfies cravings while keeping it low-carb.

Ingredients

• Ground beef - 300 grams
• Pineapple rings - 2 rings (approximately 150 grams)
• Lettuce leaves - 4 large leaves
• Soy sauce (or tamari for gluten-free) - 2 tablespoons
• Erythritol (or other keto-friendly sweetener) - 1 tablespoon
• Garlic powder - 1 teaspoon
• Ginger powder - 1 teaspoon
• Olive oil - 1 tablespoon
• Salt - 1/2 teaspoon
• Black pepper - 1/4 teaspoon

Steps

1. In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and ginger powder. Mix well and form into two equal-sized patties.
2. In a small bowl, whisk together the soy sauce and erythritol to create the teriyaki glaze.
3. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the burger patties and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired doneness.
4. During the last minute of cooking, brush the teriyaki glaze over the burger patties and place a pineapple ring on top of each patty, allowing it to caramelize slightly.
5. Remove the burgers from the skillet and let them rest for a minute. To assemble, place each burger on a large lettuce leaf, topping with the grilled pineapple and any additional toppings of your choice.
