Instructions

    1.
    Combine the ground beef and olive oil in a large skillet over high heat. Break up the beef, leaving an assortment of crumbly and chunky pieces to mimic a chopped burger patty. Stir in the salt, pepper, garlic, and onion powder. Cook until the beef is browned and slightly charred.
    2.
    Transfer the cooked beef to a bowl and set aside. Leave any juices in the skillet and return it to medium heat. Add the butter and cauliflower rice.
    3.
    Add salt and pepper to the rice. Turn the heat to medium-high and cook until the rice turns slightly charred.
    4.
    Stir the cooked beef back into the skillet and gently fold the ingredients until the beef is heated through.
    5.
    Turn the heat back down to low and stir in the lettuce and sliced tomatoes. Cook for about 2 minutes - just long enough to heat the veggies while maintaining their crispness.
    6.
    Keep the heat on low and lay the American cheese slices over the skillet. Place a lid over the skillet to help melt the cheese - about 3-4 minutes. Once melted, set the skillet aside to cool temporarily.
    7.
    In a small bowl, stir together the mayo and ketchup. Serve this special sauce on the side or spoon it directly onto the skillet.
