Ingredients

• 1.5 pounds Ground beef (80/20 blend)
• 4 slices Gruyère cheese
• 4 pieces Brioche burger buns
• 1 large Yellow onion
• 2 tablespoons Butter
• 2 cloves Garlic
• 1 cup Mayonnaise
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 2 teaspoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 teaspoon Black pepper
• 1 cup Fresh arugula

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, mix the mayonnaise, 1 minced clove of garlic, and Dijon mustard to create the garlic aioli. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.

Step 2

Thinly slice the yellow onion. Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat, add onions, and cook for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until caramelized. Set aside.

Step 3

Preheat your grill or stovetop grill pan to medium-high heat.

Step 4

In a large bowl, gently mix the ground beef with 1 teaspoon of salt and 1 teaspoon of black pepper. Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape into patties about ¾ inch thick. Make a shallow indent in the center of each patty with your thumb to help them cook evenly.

Step 5

Brush the grill or grill pan with olive oil, and cook the burger patties for 3-4 minutes per side for medium doneness. During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of Gruyère cheese on each patty to melt.

Step 6

Lightly toast the brioche buns on the grill for about 1 minute, cut side down.

Step 7

Assemble the burgers: Spread a generous layer of garlic aioli on both halves of the toasted buns. Place the burger patty on the bottom bun, topped with caramelized onions, a handful of fresh arugula, and the top bun.

Step 8

Serve immediately and enjoy your Bistro Burgers!
