Ingredients

• 1 pound Ground beef (80/20)
• 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 1 medium Yellow onion, finely diced
• 1 cup Water
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
• 12 pieces Soft dinner rolls (soy-free)
• 12 pieces Dill pickle slices
• 6 slices American cheese (optional, soy-free)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 300°F (150°C) to slightly warm the dinner rolls later.

Step 2

In a large skillet over medium heat, melt 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter.

Step 3

Add the finely diced yellow onion and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5-7 minutes until translucent and just starting to brown.

Step 4

Add 1 cup of water to the skillet with the onions, reduce to low heat, and let the mixture simmer.

Step 5

While the onions simmer, season the ground beef with 1 teaspoon of salt and 1/2 teaspoon of black pepper in a mixing bowl.

Step 6

Spread the ground beef into a thin, even layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet (roughly 9x13 inches) for easy handling and consistent thickness.

Step 7

Using a sharp knife or a ruler, score the raw beef into 12 equal-sized squares to form patties. Do not separate them yet.

Step 8

Transfer the baking sheet to the freezer for 10 minutes to help the patties firm up, making them easier to handle.

Step 9

In the meantime, use another baking sheet to lightly warm the dinner rolls in the oven for 5 minutes.

Step 10

Heat a large, clean skillet or griddle over medium heat and melt the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter.

Step 11

Carefully transfer the beef squares to the skillet, keeping them as intact as possible. Cook for 2 minutes on the first side, flipping only once.

Step 12

After flipping, spoon the onion and water mixture over each patty to enhance flavor and steam-cook them for another 1-2 minutes.

Step 13

If using cheese, place half a slice on each patty during the last 30 seconds of cooking to allow it to melt.

Step 14

To assemble each slider, split the warmed rolls in half and place a beef patty on the bottom bun, followed by a pickle slice and the top bun.

Step 15

Serve immediately and enjoy your soy-free White Castle sliders!
