Ingredients
Scale
- 2 large flatbreads or pita bread (store-bought or homemade)
- 1 lb (450g) ground beef (or ground turkey for a lighter option)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil (for cooking the beef)
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- 2 tablespoons ketchup (optional, for drizzling)
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese (or your favorite cheese like mozzarella, American, or Swiss)
- Lettuce leaves, shredded (optional, for freshness)
- Sliced tomatoes (optional)
- Sliced pickles (classic burger topping)
- Ketchup, mustard, or other condiments (optional)
- Fresh herbs (like parsley or chives) for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook for 2-3 minutes until softened. Add the ground beef and cook, breaking it up with a wooden spoon, until browned and cooked through (about 5-7 minutes). Drain excess fat, if necessary. Stir in Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Set aside.
- Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). If using store-bought flatbreads or pita, place them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. If making homemade flatbreads, cook them in a skillet for 1-2 minutes per side until lightly golden and cooked through.
- Spread the cooked beef mixture evenly over the flatbreads. Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the beef.
- Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake for 5-7 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly, and the edges of the flatbread are golden and crispy.
- Remove from the oven and top with your favorite toppings, such as lettuce, tomatoes, pickles, and condiments like ketchup and mustard. Garnish with fresh herbs for a pop of color.
- Cut into slices or serve whole. Enjoy with your favorite sides like fries, salad, or coleslaw.
