with Griddled Onion, Roasted Potato Wedges & Smoky Mustard

⏱️ 30 min 🍽️ 2 servings

Cooking Tips

When forming burger patties, try not to overwork the meat; a light touch will make for juicier burgers. For best browning on the griddled onions, cook in a single layer and in batches if necessary.

Cooking Steps

Roast Potatoes

Adjust rack to top position and preheat oven to 450 degrees. Wash and dry produce. Slice potatoes into ½-inch-thick wedges. Toss on a baking sheet with a drizzle of oil, salt, and pepper. Roast on top rack until lightly browned and tender, 20-25 minutes.

Prep

Meanwhile, peel and cut onion into ¼-inch-thick rounds, keeping layers intact. Halve buns.

Griddle Onion

Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add onion and cook until tender and browned at the edges, 2-4 minutes per side. Season with salt and pepper. Turn off heat; transfer to a plate. Wipe out pan. (Tip: The onion slices won't brown well if they're not in a single layer. Cook in batches if necessary!)

Cook Burgers

Form 10 oz of ground beef (for 2 servings) into two patties (four patties for 4 servings), each slightly wider than a burger bun. Season generously with salt and pepper. Heat a drizzle of oil in pan used for onion over medium-high heat. Add patties and cook to desired doneness, 3-5 minutes per side. In the last 1-2 minutes of cooking, top patties with white cheddar cheese and cover pan to melt.

Toast Buns

While patties cook, toast buns until golden brown. Spread as much mustard as you like onto cut sides of buns.

Finish & Serve

Fill buns with griddled onion, patties, and crispy fried onions. Divide burgers between plates and serve with potato wedges on the side.
