Ingredients

• 1 lb Ground beef
• 0.5 cup Sour cream
• 1 tbsp Onion powder
• 1 tsp Garlic powder
• 1 tsp Salt
• 0.5 tsp Black pepper
• 0.25 cup Panko breadcrumbs
• 1 Egg
• 2 tbsp Butter
• 1 medium Onion
• 0.25 cup Mayonnaise
• 1 tsp Dijon mustard
• 4 Hamburger buns
• 4 leaves Lettuce
• 4 Cheddar cheese slices

Directions

Step 1

In a large bowl, combine the ground beef, 1/4 cup sour cream, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, breadcrumbs, and the egg. Mix until just combined, being careful not to overmix.

Step 2

Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape them into burger patties about 1/2-inch thick. Use your thumb to make a small indentation in the center of each patty to prevent puffing while cooking.

Step 3

Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Add 1 tablespoon of butter and let it melt. Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until they reach your desired doneness. Add the cheese slices to the patties during the last minute of cooking, allowing them to melt. Remove patties from the skillet and let them rest for a few minutes.

Step 4

While the patties are cooking, slice the onion thinly. In a separate pan, melt the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter over medium heat. Add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until they are soft and caramelized, about 10 minutes.

Step 5

In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, the remaining 1/4 cup sour cream, and Dijon mustard. Stir in half of the caramelized onions for extra flavor.

Step 6

Toast the hamburger buns lightly in the same skillet or on a grill for about 1 minute, until golden brown.

Step 7

Assemble the burgers by spreading the sour cream and onion sauce on the bottom halves of the buns. Add a lettuce leaf, the cooked patty with melted cheese, and a spoonful of the remaining caramelized onions. Top with the other half of the bun.

Step 8

Serve immediately with your favorite sides, such as fries or a crisp green salad.
