Hamburgers are a classic dish that is loved by people of all ages. They are a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed for lunch, dinner, or a snack.
This recipe is unique because it uses a special technique to create a juicy patty and crispy buns. The patty is seasoned with a blend of herbs and spices to add flavor and moisture. The buns are toasted in butter to create a crispy exterior.
Ingredients:
1 pound ground beef
1/4 cup bread crumbs
1/4 cup chopped onion
1/4 cup chopped green bell pepper
1 egg, beaten
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon onion powder
1/4 teaspoon paprika
4 hamburger buns
1/4 cup butter, melted
Instructions:
In a large bowl, combine ground beef, bread crumbs, onion, green bell pepper, egg, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix until well combined.
Form the mixture into 4 patties, each about 4 inches in diameter.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon of butter to the skillet.
Cook the patties for 5-7 minutes per side, or until cooked through.
Meanwhile, toast the buns in a toaster oven or under the broiler.
To assemble the hamburgers, spread a thin layer of butter on the bottom of each bun. Top with a patty, your favorite toppings, and the top bun.
Tips for a Perfect Hamburger with Juicy Patty and Crispy Buns:
Use 80/20 ground beef for the best flavor and moisture.
Don't overwork the meat when forming the patties. This will make the patties tough.
Cook the patties over medium heat to prevent them from burning.
Toast the buns in butter for a crispy exterior.
Variations:
For a cheeseburger, top the patty with cheese during the last minute of cooking.
For a bacon cheeseburger, add bacon to the skillet with the patties.
For a veggie burger, substitute ground turkey or chicken for the ground beef. Add your favorite vegetables to the patty mixture.
