Sliders Ingredients

Method

Sliders Directions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Caramelized Onions

    Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add sliced onions and cook slowly, stirring occasionally, until they are golden brown and caramelized, about 20-25 minutes.

  2. 2

    Make the Black Pepper Caper Aioli

    In a bowl, mix mayonnaise, chopped capers, and black pepper. Adjust seasoning to taste and set aside.

  3. 3

    Form the Patties

    In a bowl, combine ground steak with salt and black pepper. Form into 3 equal patties, about ½ inch thick.

  4. 4

    Cook the Patties

    Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium doneness. Place a slice of Gruyère cheese on each patty during the last minute of cooking to melt.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Sliders

    Spread a generous amount of black pepper caper aioli on the bottom half of each pretzel bun. Place the cooked steak patty with melted Gruyère on top, followed by caramelized onions. Finish with the top half of the bun.
