Gourmet Parmiago Burgers Directions:
Preheat grill to medium heat. In medium skillet, add olive oil and onion. Sauté on medium heat until tender and brown (about 10 mins). In a large bowl, mix together the sauteed onions, egg, Parmiago and beef. Using your hands, form the patties to the size of your buns. This will make 6-8 burgers depending on the thickness of the burger you prefer. Make sure to press a “dimple” into the center of each burger about 1/4” deep. This dimple will protect the burger from excessive shrinkage and ensure a bun sized finished product. Grill the Gourmet Parmiago Burgers about 5 minutes on each side or until desired temperature is reached. Do not press burgers on grill as this will dry them out. A 160 degree internal temperature is recommended. Serve burgers on buns with extra Parmiago and fixings.
