Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Onions

    Slice the onion into thin rings. Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the onions and cook until they are caramelized, about 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  2. 2

    Form the Patties

    In a bowl, combine ground beef, salt, and black pepper. Form into two equal patties.

  3. 3

    Cook the Patties

    In a separate skillet, heat butter over medium-high heat. Once melted, add the patties and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium-rare, adding a slice of moon valley cheese on top during the last minute of cooking to melt.

  4. 4

    Assemble the Burger

    On a plate, place a piece of butter lettuce, followed by the cooked patty with melted cheese, caramelized onions, pickles, and jalapeños. Top with another piece of lettuce if desired.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the burgers immediately and enjoy!
