OLIVE BURGER

Time 18m

Yield 1 serving

Number Of Ingredients 6

Ingredients

6 ounces ground beef
1 hamburger bun, toasted
1/4 recipe Olive Topping, recipe follows
8 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
1 cup sliced green olives
3 ounces olive juice, from jar

Steps:

In a skillet over medium-high heat, cook the burger to desired doneness, 10 to 15 minutes for medium to well-done.
Place the burger on the bun and top with olive topping.
Mix the cream cheese with the olives and olive juice.

Tips:

Choose a flavorful blue cheese: A good blue cheese will have a strong, pungent flavor that will stand up to the other ingredients in the topping. Some good options include Roquefort, Gorgonzola, and Stilton.
Use a variety of olives: Different types of olives will provide different flavors and textures to the topping. Some good options include Kalamata, green olives, and black olives.
Chop the olives finely: This will help to distribute the flavor and texture of the olives evenly throughout the topping.
Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs will add a bright, herbaceous flavor to the topping. Some good options include parsley, cilantro, and basil.
Don't overmix the topping: Overmixing will make the topping too thick and pasty. Just mix the ingredients until they are combined.

Conclusion:

This blue cheese olive burger topping is a delicious and easy way to add flavor and interest to your burgers. The combination of blue cheese, olives, and herbs creates a complex and savory flavor that will please everyone at your table. So next time you're grilling burgers, be sure to give this topping a try.
