Method

Burger Preparation

  1. 1

    Caramelize the Onions

    Slice the onion thinly and sauté it in a pan over medium heat with a little olive oil until it becomes golden brown and caramelized, about 15-20 minutes.

  2. 2

    Form the Burger Patty

    In a bowl, season the ground beef with salt and black pepper. Form into a 10 oz patty, making a slight indentation in the center.

  3. 3

    Cook the Burger

    Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the burger patty for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium doneness. Add the slice of cheddar cheese on the patty during the last minute of cooking to melt.

  4. 4

    Prepare the Avocado

    Slice the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop out the flesh. Slice it into thin pieces.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Burger

    On the bottom half of the burger bun, layer the lettuce, cooked patty with melted cheese, caramelized onions, pickles, and avocado. Spread chipotle aioli on the top half of the bun and place it on top.

Chipotle Aioli Preparation

  1. 6

    Make the Aioli

    In a small bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, chipotle peppers, and lime juice until well combined. Adjust seasoning if necessary.

Home Potatoes or French Fries Preparation

  1. 7

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C). Cut the potatoes into wedges or fries and toss them with olive oil, paprika, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.

  2. 8

    Bake the Potatoes

    Spread the potatoes in a single layer on a baking sheet. Bake for 25-30 minutes, flipping halfway through, until golden and crispy.
