These mini burgers satiate your craving for beef without the guilt of a 1/2-pound serving. Cook the burgers in a pan or on a grill over medium-high heat. Mini hamburger buns or Parker House Rolls are perfect. Ingredients:
1 teaspoon canola oil |
1/2 cup vertically sliced onion |
1 pound 93% lean ground beef |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper |
2 (1-ounce) slices reduced-fat cheddar cheese, quartered |
8 (1.4-ounce) slider rolls |
toppings (optional): lettuce, ketchup, canola mayonnaise, prepared mustard |
Directions:
1. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add oil; swirl to coat. Add onion; cook 5 minutes or until tender, stirring frequently. Remove onion from pan; do not wipe pan.
2. While onion cooks, combine beef, salt, and pepper; shape into 8 (1/2-inch-thick) patties. Add patties to drippings in pan. Cook 4 minutes on each side or until done, topping each patty with 1 cheese quarter during last 2 minutes of cooking time. Remove from pan. Add 4 rolls, cut sides down, to drippings in pan. Cook 1 minute or until toasted. Repeat procedure with remaining 4 rolls.
3. Place patties on bottom halves of rolls; top patties evenly with onion. Cover with top halves of buns. Serve with desired toppings.
4. Tip: You can season the beef and shape the patties in the morning; then when you get home they're ready to go.
