Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 large Vidalia onion
- 0.5 cup Caesar dressing
- 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese
- 4 large romaine lettuce leaves
- 4 hamburger buns
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 0.5 tsp garlic powder
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp ground black pepper
Instructions
Slice the Vidalia onion into thin rings.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the onion rings and cook, stirring occasionally, for 15-20 minutes or until golden and caramelized. Remove from heat and set aside.
In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix gently with your hands until just combined, being careful not to overwork the meat.
Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each into a burger patty about 1/2 inch thick.
Heat the remaining tablespoon of olive oil in a grill pan or large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the burger patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness. Cover with foil and let rest for 5 minutes.
Lightly toast the hamburger buns on the grill pan or in a toaster, if desired.
Spread a heaping tablespoon of Caesar dressing on the bottom half of each bun. Place a lettuce leaf on top, followed by the cooked burger patty.
Top each burger with caramelized Vidalia onions and a sprinkle of Parmesan cheese.
Close the burgers with the top halves of the buns, and serve immediately. Enjoy!
