Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Ground beef (preferably 80/20 lean-fat ratio)
- 30 grams Unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 2 medium Yellow onions (thinly sliced)
- 2 cloves Garlic (minced)
- 50 grams Breadcrumbs
- 1 large Whole egg
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (chopped)
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper (freshly ground)
- 60 milliliters Dry white wine (optional)
- 60 milliliters Beef stock (or water)
Instructions
In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, breadcrumbs, egg, parsley, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently with your hands until just combined. Be careful not to overwork the mixture.
Divide the beef mixture into 4 equal portions and shape into patties. Set aside in the refrigerator while you prepare the onions.
In a large skillet, heat 15 grams of butter and 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and cook, stirring occasionally, for 10-12 minutes, or until they are soft and caramelized. Add the minced garlic and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes. Remove the onions from the skillet and set aside.
In the same skillet, heat the remaining 15 grams of butter and 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the beef patties for 3-4 minutes per side, or until browned and cooked through to your desired doneness. Remove the patties from the skillet and keep warm.
Deglaze the skillet by adding the white wine, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan. Let it simmer for 1-2 minutes, then add the beef stock. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, allowing the liquid to reduce slightly.
Return the caramelized onions to the skillet and stir them into the sauce. Adjust seasoning with additional salt and pepper if needed.
Serve each beef patty topped with a generous spoonful of the caramelized onion sauce. Pair with mashed potatoes or a crisp green salad for a complete meal.
