Jeff's Caramelized Onion Burger

These are easy and taste so good; these aren't like those bland burgers that require tons of topping to cover up the taste.

• Ready In: 50 mins
• Serves: 8

Ingredients

• 1 1⁄2 lbs ground beef or 1 1⁄2 lbs ground turkey or 1 1⁄2 lbs ground chicken

• 1 1⁄2 teaspoons ground cumin
• 1  tablespoon brown sugar (optional)
•  salt and pepper

Directions

1. Sauté finely chopped onions on low flame (if you do this step too quickly by using a higher flame your onions will not become tender) with several tablespoons of oil until nicely browned and caramelized (soft but don't over brown).
2. In a large bowl mix together the remaining ingredients with the caramelized onions.
3. Cook the burgers on a medium flame in a frying pan or barbecue until nicely browned.
4. Top with lettuce, tomato, ketchup, sliced dill pickles, as you like. Enjoy!
