From The TeamingUp Kitchen: Sliders With Caramelized Onions
Time: 30 min Yields: 6 Calories: 201
No cookout is complete without burgers. Don’t be fooled by their small size. These sliders deliver great flavor plus portion control.
Ingredients
- 2 tsp canola oil
- 3 cups thinly sliced Vidalia, Maui, or other sweet onion
- 1/2 tsp sea salt, or to taste
- 12 oz. lean ground beef sirloin
- 1 tbsp organic ketchup
- 1 1/2 tsp steak sauce
- 1 large garlic clove, minced
- 1/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper, or to taste
- 6 (1-1/2 oz) soft whole grain or other soft dinner rolls
- 6-12 organic baby arugula leaves (optional)
Directions
- Preheat broiler or grill. Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Add the onion and 1/4 tsp salt. Cook, stirring constantly, for 15 minutes or until golden brown.
- In a medium bowl, add the beef, ketchup, steak sauce, garlic, 1/4 tsp salt, and pepper and combine with your hands until just mixed. Form into 6 burgers.
- Grill burgers for 1 minute per side or until medium well. Tip: These burgers are smaller than your average 1/4 lb burgers, so keep a close eye on how fast they cook. It’s easy to overcook them and dry them out, so stay close to the grill.
- Remove from heat and let the burgers sit for 3 to 5 minutes before placing in buns. Top each beef patty with about 2 tbsp caramelized onion and 1 to 2 arugula leaves (if you like). Serve with additional organic ketchup or other condiment of choice. Also feel free to top with cheese (will change nutritional information).
