Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 Plant-based meat patties
- 2 large Onions
- 3 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 tablespoon Balsamic vinegar
- 1 tablespoon Brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Fresh thyme leaves
Instructions
Start by preparing the onions. Peel and thinly slice the onions into half-moons.
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Add the sliced onions to the skillet.
Sprinkle the onions with salt and stir occasionally, allowing them to caramelize slowly for about 20-25 minutes.
Once the onions are soft and golden brown, add in the balsamic vinegar and brown sugar. Mix well and let them cook for an additional 5 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
While the onions are caramelizing, prepare the plant-based meat patties. Brush them lightly with the remaining olive oil and season with garlic powder, fresh thyme, salt, and black pepper.
Preheat a grill or grill pan over medium heat. Place the seasoned plant-based patties on the grill.
Grill the patties for about 5-6 minutes on each side or until cooked through and have nice grill marks.
Once the patties are cooked, remove them from the grill and let them rest for a few minutes.
Serve the grilled plant-based meat with a generous topping of caramelized onions. Enjoy!
