Ingredients:
- 1 lb Lean Ground Beef (90/10)
- 1 tsp Smoked Paprika
- 1 tsp Garlic Powder
- 1/2 tsp Onion Powder
- 1 tsp Kosher Salt
- 1/2 tsp Coarse Black Pepper
- 1 tbsp Avocado Oil
- 1/2 cup Avocado Oil Mayonnaise
- 2 tbsp Sugar-Free Ketchup
- 1 tbsp Yellow Mustard
- 2 tbsp Finely Minced Dill Pickles
- 1 tsp Apple Cider Vinegar
- 1/2 tsp Smoked Paprika
- 4 cups Chopped Romaine Hearts
- 1 cup Cherry Tomatoes, halved
- 1/2 Red Onion, thinly sliced
- 1/2 cup Shredded Sharp Cheddar Cheese
- 1/4 cup Sliced Dill Pickles
- 2 cups Roasted Cubed Yukon Gold Potatoes
Instructions:
- Pat the ground beef dry with a paper towel. Heat avocado oil in a large cast iron skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
- Add the beef to the skillet in large chunks. Let sear undisturbed for 2 minutes to develop a deep mahogany crust (Maillard reaction). Flip the beef and break into fork-sized crumbles.
- Season the beef with smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Continue cooking until the beef is no longer pink.
- In a small glass mixing bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, sugar-free ketchup, yellow mustard, minced dill pickles, apple cider vinegar, and 1/2 tsp smoked paprika until the sauce is fully emulsified.
- Assemble the bowls by layering 1 cup of chopped romaine as the base. Top with equal portions of the seasoned beef, roasted potatoes, cherry tomatoes, red onion, and shredded cheddar cheese.
- Finish each bowl with sliced dill pickles and a generous drizzle of the signature special sauce.
