Savory Summer Sliders
Serves 4
Here is what you need:
8 premade slider burger patties
8 slices American cheese
8 bib lettuce leaves
8 toasted mini brioche buns
8 dollops of sriracha sauce (optional)
Thin slices of red onion
mayonnaise
For the Savory Summer Seasoning, combine:
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp smoked paprika
1 tsp kosher salt
½ tsp fresh ground black pepper
Here is what you need to do:
Sprinkle the patties on both sides with your seasoning mixture.
Let the patties come to room temperature.
Heat grill to medium high.
Cook the patties to your liking, flipping them just once.
Fold the cheese slices from the corners to the center to make them fit the patties. If you want, before folding the cheese add a dollop of the sriracha sauce. Put the cheese on the patties just before taking off the grill.
Hint: Let the cheese get to room temperature, it will melt faster.
Remove patties from grill. Spread top and bottom of toasted buns with mayonnaise.
Place a lettuce leaf on bottom of each bun, next the patty with the melted cheese, the onion and finally the top bun. Let's Eat!!
