Method

Prepare the Lamb Burgers

  1. 1

    Mix the Lamb

    In a bowl, combine the ground lamb, crumbled blue cheese, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and chopped parsley. Mix well until fully combined.

  2. 2

    Form Patties

    Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and form into patties about 3/4 inch thick.

  3. 3

    Cook the Patties

    Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they reach your desired doneness.

Make the Chipotle Onion Relish

  1. 4

    Sauté Onions

    In a separate pan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the diced red onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.

  2. 5

    Add Chipotle

    Stir in the minced chipotle peppers, brown sugar, and salt. Cook for an additional 3-4 minutes until well combined and heated through.

Prepare the Aioli

  1. 6

    Mix Aioli Ingredients

    In a bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, minced garlic, lemon juice, and salt until smooth and well combined.

Assemble the Burger

  1. 7

    Build the Burger

    Spread aioli on the bottom half of each burger bun. Place the cooked lamb patty on top, followed by a generous spoonful of chipotle onion relish. Top with the other half of the bun.
