Ingredients: 

  • 450g Ground Beef
  • Extra-Virgin Olive Oil
  • 1 diced Small Yellow Onion
  • Kosher Salt, To Taste
  • Cheese
  • Shredded Iceberg Lettuce
  • Burger Buns
  • Hidden Valley® Original Ranch 

Method:

1. Divide the hamburger meat into 8 balls. Place each ball between two sheets of plastic wrap. Smash with the bottom of a pan to make even thin patties about ½-inch wider than your bun. Refrigerate wrapped patties for at least 10 minutes while you prepare everything else.

2. To make the onions, heat the oil in a medium sauté pan over medium heat. Add the diced onions to the pan and season with salt, then sauté for about 8–10 minutes or until caramelized.
 
3. Brush a cast iron pan or large skillet with olive oil, and place over medium-high heat. Season both sides of two patties and place 2 at a time in the pan.

4. Sear for about 1–2 minutes and flip over; as soon as you flip the patty over, place a slice of the cheese on the patty to melt, and cook another 1–2 minutes. Remove, and repeat with remaining burgers.

5. To assemble, place some shredded lettuce on the bottom of each bun. Stack two burger patties on top of each other on top of the lettuce; then add a spoonful of the caramelized onions on top. Drizzle some ranch over everything and place the top of the buns onto the burgers. Serve immediately.
