Description

Indulge in the rich flavors of our Savory Caramelized Onion and Cheese Burgers, where gourmet meets comfort. Each bite is a symphony of juicy ground beef, sweetly caramelized onions, and melted Swiss cheese, all nestled between toasted buns brushed with a hint of butter or oil for that extra touch of indulgence.


Ingredients

Scale

1 1/2 pounds ground beef
4 to 6 tablespoons Lipton Onion Soup Mix
2 1/2 tablespoons butter
2 large onions, thinly sliced
A pinch of thyme

3/4 cup water (adjust as needed)
1 tablespoon brandy or Sherry (optional, but recommended)
4 to 8 ounces Swiss or Provolone cheese
4 buns, butter or oil for brushing


Instructions

Preparation: Mix ground beef with onion soup mix and let it rest. Meanwhile, in a skillet, melt butter and add onions, thyme, and water. Cover and simmer until onions are tender. Remove the lid, continue cooking until onions are caramelized, adding water as needed. Finish with a splash of brandy or Sherry.
Cooking Burgers: Shape the beef mixture into burgers, creating a dent on the top for even cooking. Cook in a skillet or grill, adding caramelized onions and cheese during the last few minutes of cooking. Ensure the cheese is melted and the burgers are cooked to your preferred doneness.
Serving: Brush buns with butter or oil and toast. Serve burgers on the toasted buns with extra caramelized onions if desired.
