These flavorful beef and chorizo burgers are topped with caramelized onions, a smoky red pepper and ranch sauce, and shavings of Manchego cheese atop sweet brioche buns.
Ingredients
Caramelized Onions
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 3 medium onions, sliced
- 1 tablespoon brown sugar
- salt and pepper to taste
Burgers
- 1 pound ground sirloin
- 1 pound chorizo sausage
- 4 soft egg buns or brioche
- 1 tablespoon softened butter
- 4 ounces Manchego cheese, grated
Ranch Sauce
- 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1 medium onion, chopped
- 1 cup ranch dressing
- 1 roasted red pepper, quartered
- 1 teaspoon Spanish paprika
- 1 pinch powdered saffron
Directions
Step 1
Start the burgers: Mix ground sirloin and chorizo together with your hands in a large bowl until well combined. Set aside to let the flavors blend while you cook the onions and make the sauce.
Step 2
Cook the onions: Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add onions, brown sugar, salt, and pepper; cook and stir until onions are golden brown, about 15 minutes.
Step 3
At the same time, make the sauce: Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and saut? until tender. Transfer onion to a blender. Add ranch dressing, red pepper, paprika, and saffron; pulse until fairly smooth. Refrigerate until needed.
Step 4
Finish the burgers: Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate. Form meat mixture into four patties, slightly larger than the buns.
Step 5
Cook burgers on the preheated grill until well done, about 5 minutes per side. Split buns in half and spread butter on the insides. Toast briefly on the grill.
Step 6
Place burgers onto buns and top with caramelized onions, ranch sauce, and Manchego cheese.
