Italian Burger

While living in Italy for 3 months, one thing I began to crave was a BURGER!! Now, while I'm home, I miss the Italian flavors that I became so accustomed to having every day. So, I decided to take the flavors of Italy and put them into a burger! Watch the video below for my recipe!

Ingredients:

Ground Beef

Shredded Parmesan

Mozzarella; sliced

1 head of Radicchio; sliced

Balsamic Vinegar

Brown Sugar

Salt and Pepper

Butter; melted

Basil; chopped

Tomatoes; sliced

Buns

Lemon juice

1/2 Mayonnaise

3-4 tablespoons Sriracha 

zest and juice of one lime

Process:

For the spicy mayo, mix the mayo, sriracha, salt/pepper, and the zest and juice of one lime; set aside

Saute the radicchio in a skillet with salt and pepper. Add the balsamic vinegar and brown sugar to taste and the juice of one lemon

For the patties, melt the butter and add in the chopped basil for flavor; set aside

Mix ground beef, parmesan, salt/pepper and form into patties.

Brush butter on both sides and toss on the hot grill for about 3 minutes per side

Brush the butter on both sides of the buns and grill those as well

To assemble, put the spicy mayo on both sides of the buns, add the meat, a bit of radicchio, then a slice of mozzarella, a slice of tomato, and the other bun!
