4 servings
- •1 pound ground sirloin
- •1 pound chorizo sausage
- •4 soft egg buns or brioche
- •1 tablespoon softened butter
- •4 ounces Manchego cheese, grated
- •1 tablespoon vegetable oil
- •3 medium onions, sliced
- •1 tablespoon brown sugar
- •salt and pepper to taste
- •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
Instructions
- 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.
- 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.
- At the same time, make the sauce: Heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add onion and sauté until tender. Transfer onion to a blender. Add ranch dressing, red pepper, paprika, and saffron; pulse until fairly smooth. Refrigerate until needed.
- 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.
- 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.
- Place burgers onto buns and top with caramelized onions, ranch sauce, and Manchego cheese.
