Time 50m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 pound ground sirloin
1 pound chorizo sausage
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 medium onion, chopped
1 roasted red pepper, quartered
1 cup Ranch dressing
1 pinch powdered saffron
1 teaspoon Spanish paprika
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
3 medium onion, sliced
1 tablespoon brown sugar
salt and pepper to taste
4 soft egg buns or brioche
1 tablespoon softened butter
4 ounces manchego cheese, grated

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, mix together the ground sirloin and chorizo using your hands. Set aside to let the flavors blend.
  • Heat one tablespoon of oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add one chopped onion, and saute until tender. Transfer the onion to a blender, and add the red pepper, Ranch dressing, saffron, and paprika. Pulse until fairly smooth. Refrigerate until needed.
  • Heat the remaining oil in a large skillet over medium heat, and add the remaining onions, brown sugar, salt and pepper. Cook and stir for about 15 minutes until the onions are golden brown. Set aside.
  • Preheat the grill for high heat. Form the meat into four patties, slightly larger than the buns.
  • Place burgers on the grill, and cook for 5 minutes per side, or until well done. Split buns in half, and spread butter on the inside. Place on the grill to toast briefly.
  • Place burgers onto buns, and top with caramelized onion and the roasted pepper ranch sauce. Sprinkle with a few shavings of manchego cheese, and place the top of the bun on top.
