Caramelized Onion & Bacon Burger

Step 1

Peel & thinly slice the onions.

Step 2

Melt a dab of butter in a pan on medium heat & add the red onions. Add a splash of water into the pan, cover & cook the onions for 8-10 min. Uncover, stir & repeat as needed!

Step 3

Meanwhile, in a second pan on medium-high heat, add the bacon slices. Cook for 2-3 min on each side or until crispy. Remove the bacon & place on a paper towel lined plate.

Step 4

In the same pan, melt a dab of butter. Toast the buns, cut-side down, in the pan for 1-2 min over high heat.

Step 5

Once the onions are caramelized, set aside.

Step 6

In the same pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil. Add the burger patties & season with salt & pepper. Cook for 2-3 min, then flip & cook for another 2-3 min (cook for 2-3 min longer if you desire a medium-well or well-done burger). Add the cheese. Cover & cook for 1 min or until the cheese is melted.

Step 7

Spread the mustard onto the the bottom burger bun. Layer on the patty, top with the caramelized onions, bacon & lettuce. Serve & enjoy!
