Hamburgers with Heat (Zippers)

 

  • 1 1/2 pounds lean ground beef
  • 2 teaspoons olive oil
  • 3/4 cup finely chopped red onion
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes
  • 1/4 teaspoon Habanero sauce
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • Salt to taste
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 2 tablespoons chopped scallions
  • 1/2 cup dry red wine (I used a Cabernet)
  • 1/4 cup chicken broth
  • 2 tablespoons chopped parsley
  • 4 soft Kaiser rolls, split
 

Method

Place the ground beef in a large stainless steel mixing bowl.

Heat oil in small cast-iron skillet.

Add onion and stir-fry until just wilted. Add garlic and continue cooking briefly, stirring constantly. Be careful not to burn the garlic.

Remove from heat and allow to cool.

Add onion mixture, chili powder, cumin, Habanero sauce, ground pepper, red pepper flakes, Worcestershire sauce and salt to the mixing bowl and mix well.

Divide the mixture into 4 patties of equal size.

Heat your grill. When it's quite hot, place the patties on the grill.

Cook on one side till nicely browned, then turn and cook 3 minutes more on the second side for medium-rare. Cook longer if you like your burgers more to the well-done side. When done place on a warm platter and set aside.   

While the burgers are grilling, heat the butter in a small skillet. Add the scallions and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add the wine and broth and let cook until reduced by about half.  Season with salt and pepper if you deem it necessary.

Spoon over burgers and sprinkle with parsley.  Bun 'em up, and serve with condiments offered at the side. 

Serves 4.
