Description
Burgers receive a delicious flavor punch from blue cheese, basil, and red pepper in the patties.
Ingredients
Scale
- 500 grams ground meat of choice (just over 1 lb)
- 1/2 large onion, chopped
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 T black peppercorns (can substitute for ground pepper)
- 1 tsp basil
- 1 tsp chives
- 1 tsp red pepper flakes (adjust to taste- I tend to go heavy on it)
- 1/4 cup crumbled blue cheese (I used Blue Danish)
- Swiss cheese for topping (optional)
- Salad ingredients for topping
Instructions
- In a food processor or blender, add all the ingredients and blend very well for mixture to be incorporated. Form into 4 palm sized patties.
- Coat a grill or frying pan with oil on medium heat. Once hot, add the patties and cook 3-5 minutes, until the edges are browned and the cheese isn’t oozing out. Flip and repeat until the sides are charred.
- Remove from pan and wrap in aluminum foil and allow to sit for 5 minutes before serving.
