Pan-Seared Burgers image

This recipe came from my local newspaper. I haven't tried it yet but sounds great. Burgers to be cooked in a skillet or under the broiler or even the barbecue for diehard barbecuers. You can double the recipe and freeze the patties in a freezer bag for up to one month.

Time 15m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 large egg
2 tablespoons cold water or 2 tablespoons beef broth
1/4 cup dry breadcrumbs
1/2 onion, grated
1 garlic clove, grated
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard or 2 teaspoons prepared mustard
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
1 lb lean ground beef
canola oil

Steps:

  • Break egg into a large bowl; whisk with water until smooth. Add breadcrumbs, onion, garlic, mustard, salt and pepper. Mix well to blend flavours.
  • Crumble beef over egg mixture, with a wooden spoon, mix beef and egg mixture just until combined.
  • Shape into four to six patties, each about 3/4 inch thick.
  • Set a skillet that will hold burgers comfortably in one layer over medium-high heat. Brush bottom of skillet with oil. Heat until oil is just shimmering. Arrange burgers in skillet. Fry until brown and crisp on bottom, about six minutes per side.
  • Remove burgers to a plate topped with towelling and pat off any visible fat.
