This idea is revolutionary. I mean, who would ever think about making a burger that was crispy and breaded, right?
1 pound ground beef chuck
Olive oil
Salt
Freshly ground black pepper
3 eggs, beaten
Panko breadcrumbs
4 hamburger buns, split in half and toasted
Mayonnaise
Form chuck into 4-ounce patties, about ¾ inch thick, with a slight depression in the middle. Season on both sides with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
Dip burgers into beaten egg. Dredge in panko breadcrumbs and set aside.
Heat a griddle over medium high heat for 2–3 minutes. Add enough olive oil to generously coat the pan, and add patties. Cook 3 minutes per side for medium rare, 4 minutes for medium, and 5 minutes per side for well done.
2–3 minutes
Spread cut side of buns with mayo. Add a patty on top of the bottom half of a bun, then top with top half. Serve warm.
