Hamburgers With Goat Cheese Recipes

Steps:

• Mix mayonnaise, vinegar, pesto and cumin in a mixing bowl and set aside.
• Heat griddle or grill to high heat.
• Form meat into 6 patties, then sprinkle with seasoned salt and place on grill. Sear until brown, about 2 minutes, then flip and repeat for other side. Reduce heat to medium and continue cooking until desired temperature is reached.
• Heat butter in skillet on medium heat and add onion. Cook, stirring occasionally, until caramelized and a golden-brown color.
• Place mozzarella on patties and let it melt. (It can help to put the cheese on a minute or two before the meat is totally cooked, to keep the moisture in and not overcook the meat.)
• Add the onion on top of the cheese and place patties on bottom buns. Top with liberal amount of sauce, 3 tomato slices and the bun tops.
• Serve while hot.

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and cook the onions until softened, about 3 minutes. Set aside to cool. Wipe out the skillet and reserve.
• Combine the chicken, basil, parsley, oregano, ricotta, garlic, lemon zest, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon pepper and the cooled onions in a large bowl. Mix well with your hands. Splash your hands with some cold water and mold the chicken mixture into 4 patties.
• Combine the mayonnaise and lemon juice in a small bowl.
• Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil in the reserved skillet and cook the patties until they're cooked through, 3 to 4 minutes on each side (see Cook's Note).
• Meanwhile, toast the buns in a toaster or on a dry pan and set aside.
• Spread the lemon mayo on each side of the buns. Place the bottom of the bun on a plate, top with the arugula, tomato, one patty, goat cheese and finally the top of the bun. Repeat with the remaining patties.

Steps:

• Heat 1 teaspoon of olive oil in a small skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir the onions in the oil until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.
• Gently knead together the softened onions, lamb, egg, bread crumbs, garlic, salt, and pepper. Divide the mixture into 6 parts and roll into balls, then cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
• Mix together the goat cheese, extra-virgin olive oil, basil, and oregano until well combined; cover and chill for 5 minutes.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat.
• Working with one portion of meat at a time, make an indentation in the center of the ball with your thumb. Fill the indentation with a heaping tablespoon of the goat cheese mixture. Gently pull and form the meat patty around the cheese filling, making a burger-shaped patty. Repeat with each ball of the lamb mixture.
• Grill the patties on the preheated grill until no longer pink in the center and well done, about 8 minutes per side.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven broiler.
• In a medium bowl, mix ground turkey, spinach, and goat cheese. Form the mixture into 4 patties.
• Arrange patties on a broiler pan, and place in the center of the preheated oven 15 minutes, or until done.

Steps:

• Heat the grill to medium. In a large bowl, place the ground chuck and herbs. Season with salt and pepper. Using your hands, mix the ingredients together until combined. Form into 6 patties; set aside.
• Brush the tomato and onion slices with oil, and season with salt and pepper. Grill the tomato and onion slices until slightly charred on both sides (onion should be tender), 4 to 6 minutes for tomatoes and 6 to 8 minutes for onions. Remove from the grill, and keep warm.
• Grill the hamburger patties, 3 to 5 minutes per side for medium-rare. When they have reached desired doneness, place cheese on top of each patty. Grill until the cheese is slightly melted.
• To serve, stack slices of onion and tomato on a serving platter with romaine and endive. Place the hamburgers on top.

Steps:

• Preheat broiler to high.
• Divide beef into 4 portions. Shape each into hamburger-shaped rounds, each about an inch thick. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Place wire rack on baking dish and arrange patties over it. Put meat under broiler, inch or two from source of heat, and leave broiler door slightly ajar. Cook about 3 minutes on one side if you wish meat rare. If you prefer it more well done cook up to 6 minutes on one side, then turn and continue cooking 2 to 4 minutes.
• Meanwhile, crumble cheese and top each portion of meat with equal portions of cheese, pressing to keep mounds of cheese intact. Return cheese-topped patties to broiler and let broil about 2 minutes until the cheese is browned on top and partly melted.
• Sprinkle top of each patty with chopped tarragon.

Steps:

• Make the onions:
• In a 3-quart saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the onion and salt, toss to combine, and cover. Cook for 20 minutes, stirring several times to ensure that the onion does not stick to the pan. Add the beer, stir, cover, and cook for 10 minutes. If the onion is deeply caramelized and the liquid has mostly evaporated, it's perfection. If not, cook for a few minutes more. Set aside.
• Make the burgers:
• In a large bowl, combine the lamb, garlic, smoked paprika, cayenne, and mint. Mix well. Set aside 4 tablespoons of the lamb mixture and divide the remaining lamb into four equal portions. Shape them into patties slightly larger than the width of the burger bun. Using your thumb, make a well in the center of each patty, going halfway through the lamb.
• Divide the goat cheese into four portions and place them in the thumb divots. Flatten each tablespoon of reserved burger mixture into a disc and place on top of the goat cheese. Pinch the edges to encase the cheese in the lamb. Season both sides of each patty with salt and pepper.
• In a large skillet, melt the butter with the olive oil over medium heat. Fry the burgers for 4 to 5 minutes per side for medium doneness.
• Place the burgers on the buns and top each with 1 tablespoon mayo, some caramelized onions, bacon, and 1/4 cup arugula.
