Cheddar Burgers With Red Onion Jam
- Jam:
- 1 teaspoon olive oil
- 4 cups vertically sliced red onion
- 4 teaspoons sugar
- 4 teaspoons red wine vinegar
- 3/4 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme
- Burgers:
- 3/4 teaspoon chopped fresh oregano
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 pound extra-lean ground round
- Cooking spray
- 4 (1/2-ounce) slices white cheddar cheese
- 4 (1 1/2-ounce) hamburger buns, toasted
- 4 teaspoons canola mayonnaise
- Prepare grill to medium-high heat.
- To prepare jam, heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add oil to pan; swirl to coat. Add onion; saute 5 minutes. Reduce heat to medium-low; stir in sugar, vinegar, and thyme. Cover and cook 10 minutes or until onion is very tender. Remove from heat.
- To prepare burgers, combine oregano, salt, garlic powder, and beef. Divide mixture into 4 equal portions, shaping each into a 1/2-inch-thick patty. Place on grill rack coated with cooking spray; cook 2 minutes. Turn patties over. Place 1 cheese slice on each patty; cook 2 minutes or until done.
- Spread cut sides of each bun with 1/2 teaspoon mayonnaise. Place 1 patty on bottom half of each bun; top each with 1/4 cup onion jam and bun top.
- Baked chips and blue cheese dip: Combine 1/2 cup (2 ounces) low-fat crumbled blue cheese, 1/3 cup reduced-fat sour cream, 2 tablespoons canola mayonnaise, and 1 teaspoon red wine vinegar in a bowl. Mash with a fork.
