Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

6 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh parsley
1 small shallot, minced
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 1/2 pounds ground beef
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
8 ounces cremini mushrooms, trimmed and thinly sliced
4 slices gruyère or white cheddar cheese
2 tablespoons dijonnaise, plus more for serving
1 tablespoon red or white wine vinegar
4 cups mixed salad greens
4 brioche buns, split and toasted

Steps:

  • Combine the butter, parsley and shallot in a small bowl and mash together to mix well (alternatively, pulse together in a small food processor). Season with a pinch each of salt and pepper; set aside.
  • Form the beef into 4 patties, about 3 1/2 inches wide and 1 inch thick. Season generously on both sides with salt and pepper.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over high heat until shimmering. Add the mushrooms and cook, undisturbed, until starting to brown, about 3 minutes. Toss and continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until lightly browned and tender, 3 to 5 more minutes; season with salt and pepper. Add 2 tablespoons of the herb butter and cook, tossing, until the mushrooms are well coated, about 30 seconds. Remove to a plate and wipe out the skillet.
  • Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in the same skillet over medium-high heat. Add the burgers and cook until browned, 4 to 5 minutes per side for medium rare. In the last minute of cooking, top each patty with a slice of cheese and the mushrooms and cover to melt.
  • Whisk the dijonnaise and vinegar in a bowl. Add the greens and toss; season with salt and pepper. Spread the remaining herb butter on the toasted buns; serve the burgers on the buns with the salad and more dijonnaise.

BISTRO BURGERS



Bistro Burgers image

What makes this burger special is its toppings. Skip the ketchup and top this burger with Dijon, bacon and fried eggs.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

4 slices bacon
1 1/2 pounds ground beef, preferably chuck
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
Vegetable oil, for the grill
4 crusty buns, split
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
4 large eggs
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard, plus more for spreading
1 shallot, thinly sliced
1 small bunch frisee, torn

Steps:

  • Preheat a grill to medium high. Cook the bacon in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, turning, until crisp. Drain the bacon on paper towels, reserving 2 tablespoons bacon drippings.
  • Form the beef into four 6-ounce patties, about 3/4 inch thick; press the center of each patty with your thumb to make a 1/2-inch-deep indentation. Season the patties on both sides with salt and pepper. Lightly brush the grill grates with vegetable oil, then grill the patties, indentation-side up, until marked on the bottom, about 5 minutes. Flip and cook until marked and slightly firm, about 3 more minutes for medium doneness. Remove the patties to a plate and let rest 5 minutes. Grill the buns, cut-side down, until lightly toasted, about 1 minute.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in the same skillet over medium-high heat. Add the eggs and fry until the yolks are set but still runny, about 5 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Whisk the mustard, the remaining 1 tablespoon olive oil, the reserved 2 tablespoons bacon drippings and the shallot in a medium bowl. Season with salt and pepper. Add the frisee and toss; season with salt and pepper.
  • Spread the bun bottoms with mustard. Top with the burger patties, bacon, frisee salad and fried eggs. Cover with the bun tops.

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ground beef for the burgers. Look for beef that is at least 80% lean, and make sure it is fresh.
  • Season the ground beef well with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. You can also add other spices, such as cumin, chili powder, or paprika, to taste.
  • Form the ground beef into patties that are about 3/4 inch thick. Make sure the patties are uniform in size so that they cook evenly.
  • Cook the burgers over medium-high heat. This will help to create a nice crust on the outside of the burgers while keeping the inside juicy.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the burgers are cooked to your desired doneness. For medium-rare burgers, cook to an internal temperature of 135 degrees Fahrenheit. For medium burgers, cook to an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit. For well-done burgers, cook to an internal temperature of 160 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the burgers rest for a few minutes before serving. This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the burgers, making them more tender and flavorful.

Conclusion:

French bistro burgers are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for any occasion. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a burger that is both flavorful and satisfying. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give these French bistro burgers a try.
