Wash and dry all produce. Preheat the oven to 450 degrees. Cut @zucchini{2%unit} into ½-inch sticks. Thinly slice 3 rounds of @red onion{1%unit}. Thinly slice @dill pickle{2%unit} into rounds.

Add the zucchini to a #medium bowl{} with 1 Tablespoon @mayonnaise{2%jar}. Toss to thoroughly coat. Add @panko breadcrumbs{½%cup} into the bowl to coat the zucchini. Season generously with @salt{} and @pepper{}. Spread the zucchini fries onto a lightly oiled #baking sheet{}. (HINT: Some of the breadcrumbs will fall off, but that’s okay!) Place in the oven for ~{15%minutes}, tossing once, until golden brown and crispy.

Form the patties: Form @short rib burger blend{24%oz} into two patties, and season generously on all sides with salt and pepper. Press a small indent into the center of each patty.

Heat a drizzle of @olive oil{4%tsp} in a #large pan{} over medium-high heat. Add the patties. Cook ~{2%minutes} per side, until cooked to desired doneness (2 minutes for rare and up to 5 for well-done).

Toast the buns: While the burgers cook, split @potato bun{4%bun} and place in the oven to toast ~{3%minutes}.

Assemble and serve: During the last minute of cooking, top each patty with @cheddar cheese{4%slice}, and cover the pan until the cheese melts. Spread the buns with @yellow mustard{1%tbsp} and @ketchup{1%unit}. Fill with a burger, some pickles, onions, and @green leaf lettuce{6%leaves}. Serve the crispy zucchini fries on the side with any remaining sauces for dipping. Enjoy!
