Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb Ground beef (80/20 blend)
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Freshly ground black pepper
- 4 Shallots, thinly sliced
- 2 tbsp Unsalted butter
- 1 tsp Granulated sugar
- 6 oz Brie cheese, sliced
- 2 Garlic cloves, minced
- 0.25 cup Mayonnaise
- 0.5 tsp Smoked paprika
- 1 cup Arugula
- 4 Brioche buns
- 1 tbsp Olive oil
Instructions
In a medium bowl, combine ground beef, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently to avoid overworking the meat. Divide into four equal portions and shape into patties, pressing a shallow indent in the center of each to ensure even cooking. Set aside.
In a skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add sliced shallots and cook for 4-5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Sprinkle sugar over the shallots to enhance caramelization and continue cooking for another 8-10 minutes, until golden and soft. Remove from heat and set aside.
To make the garlic aioli, combine minced garlic, mayonnaise, and smoked paprika in a small bowl. Mix well and refrigerate until ready to use.
Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Brush the grill grates with olive oil to prevent sticking. Grill the patties for 3-4 minutes per side for medium rare, or longer to your preferred doneness. During the last minute of cooking, place slices of brie on each patty and cover with a lid to melt the cheese.
Toast the brioche buns lightly on the grill for 1-2 minutes, until warm and slightly crisp.
To assemble the burgers, spread a generous amount of garlic aioli on the bottom half of each bun. Top with a handful of arugula, a brie-topped patty, and a scoop of caramelized shallots. Finish with the top half of the bun.
Serve immediately and enjoy this decadent, French-inspired burger!
