Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 packet Lipton onion soup mix
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 4 hamburger buns
- 4 slices cheese (optional)
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Begin by gathering all your ingredients: 1 lb of ground beef, 1 packet of Lipton onion soup mix, 1/2 cup of sour cream, 4 hamburger buns, 4 slices of cheese (if desired), and salt and pepper to taste.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef and the Lipton onion soup mix. Use your hands or a fork to mix the ingredients together until they are well combined.
- Add the sour cream to the meat mixture, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Mix until the sour cream is evenly distributed throughout the beef.
- Divide the beef mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each portion into a patty, making sure they are slightly larger than the hamburger buns as they will shrink while cooking.
- Preheat your grill or skillet over medium-high heat. If using a skillet, you may want to add a little oil to prevent sticking.
- Once the grill or skillet is hot, place the patties on it. Cook for about 5-7 minutes on one side, or until a nice crust forms.
- Flip the patties and cook for an additional 5-7 minutes on the other side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness. If you are using cheese, add a slice on top of each patty during the last minute of cooking to allow it to melt.
- While the patties are cooking, you can toast the hamburger buns on the grill or in a toaster until they are golden brown.
- Once the patties are done, remove them from the heat and let them rest for a couple of minutes.
- Assemble your burgers by placing each patty on a toasted bun. You can add any additional toppings you like, such as lettuce, tomato, or pickles.
- Serve the Sour Cream and Lipton Onion Burgers immediately with your favorite sides, and enjoy!
Tips
- For maximum flavor, mix the Lipton onion soup mix thoroughly with the ground beef to ensure even seasoning.
- Use fresh, high-quality ground beef with a fat content around 80/20 for juicier burgers.
- Don't overwork the meat when forming patties - this can make them tough.
- Create a small indent in the center of each patty to prevent them from puffing up during cooking.
- Let the burgers rest for 2-3 minutes after cooking to retain their juices.
- For extra richness, use full-fat sour cream.
- Toast your buns for added texture and to prevent them from getting soggy.
- Experiment with additional toppings like caramelized onions or crispy bacon for extra flavor.
