Ingredients:

For the Beef Patties:

  • 1 lb ground beef (80% lean)
  • Salt and pepper to season
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder

For the Cheese:

  • 4 small pieces of your preferred cheese (e.g., cheddar, Swiss, American), about 1/4 inch thick

For the “Buns”:

  • 8 slices of halloumi cheese, approximately 1/4 inch thick

Instructions:

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, garlic powder, onion powder, and season it with salt and pepper. Form the mixture into small, slider-sized patties, about 2-3 inches in diameter.
  2. Preheat a grill or a stovetop skillet over medium-high heat. Make sure it’s hot before you start cooking.

  4. Place the beef patties on the grill or skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side for medium-rare, or longer if you prefer your burgers more well-done.
  5. During the last minute of cooking, add your preferred cheese on each patty to melt.
  6. Take a slice of halloumi as the bottom “bun.” Add a beef patty with your chosen melted cheese on top.
  7. Place another slice of halloumi as the top “bun.”
  8. Secure each slider with a toothpick to hold everything together.
