Ww Beef Patties With Sweet and Sour Onions 5 - Points

This is out of the WW cookbook called "15-Minute Cookbook" dated 1998. I have it marked as being really good! It's a quick and easy dish to prepare. I have just used chopped onion in place of the frozen. If you do use the frozen make sure to drain well so gravy isn't watered down. Hope you enjoy.

• Ready In: 20 mins
• Serves: 4
• Yields: 4 patties

Ingredients

• 1  lb lean ground beef
• 1⁄4 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1⁄4 teaspoon pepper
•  cooking spray
• 1 (12 ounce) package  frozen chopped onions
• 2  tablespoons sugar

Directions

1. Combine first 3 ingredients; stir well. Shape meat mixture into 4 equal patties, 1/4 inch thick.
2. Coat a large nonstick skillet with cooking spray; place over medium-high heat until hot. Place patties in skillet, and cook 5 minutes on each side or until done.
3. While patties cook, thaw onion by placing in a strainer or colander under warm running water. (I just chop up fresh, about 2 1/2 cups). Drain well.
4. Transfer patties to a serving platter, and keep warm.
5. Add onion, sugar, and vinegar to skillet; cook 4 minutes over medium heat or until onion mixture is slightly thickened.
6. Pour onion mixture over patties, and serve immediately.
