Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb ground beef (80% lean)
- 0.25 cup soy sauce
- 2 tbsp brown sugar
- 2 tbsp mirin (Japanese sweet rice wine)
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp ginger, grated
- 1 tsp cornstarch
- 1 tbsp water (for cornstarch slurry)
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
- 1 tbsp vegetable oil
- 4 burger buns
- 4 lettuce leaves
- 1 tomato, sliced
- 0.5 red onion, sliced
- 4 tbsp mayonnaise
Instructions
In a small saucepan, combine soy sauce, brown sugar, mirin, minced garlic, and grated ginger over medium heat. Stir until the sugar is dissolved.
In a small bowl, mix cornstarch with water to create a slurry. Add the slurry to the saucepan, whisking constantly until the sauce thickens. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine ground beef, salt, and black pepper. Mix lightly with your hands until just combined. Do not overwork the meat.
Divide the ground beef mixture into four equal portions and shape them into patties about 1/2 inch thick. Press a small indent in the center of each patty to prevent puffing during cooking.
Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat and add vegetable oil. Once the oil is hot, place the patties in the pan and cook for 4-5 minutes per side, or until they reach your desired doneness.
Brush the cooked patties generously with the teriyaki sauce during the last minute of cooking to glaze them.
Toast the burger buns lightly in the same pan or on the grill until golden brown.
Assemble the burgers by spreading 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise on the bottom half of each bun. Add a lettuce leaf, a teriyaki-glazed patty, a slice of tomato, and a few slices of red onion. Top with the other half of the bun.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Mouth Watering Teriyaki Burgers!
