Recipe: Mongolian Beef Burgers with Grilled Green Onion Mayonnaise

I love green onions, so I’m really intrigued by the idea of making a mayonnaise with it. Check out this recipe from San-J – it sounds delicious!

Mongolian Beef Burgers with Grilled Green Onion Mayonnaise

Recipe by Carol Kicinski

Ingredients:

Vegetable oil
4 Green Onions
½ cup Mayonnaise
1 small clove Garlic, finely grated or minced
Kosher Salt
Black Pepper, freshly ground
1½ pounds Ground Chuck (20% fat)
3 tablespoons San-J Mongolian Sauce, use divided
4 gluten free Hamburger Buns, toasted
Lettuce Leaves
8 strips Roasted Red Peppers

Directions:

Heat a grill to high. Brush the green onions with some oil and grill for 2 – 3 minutes per side. Let cool then finely chop. Stir the grilled onions into the mayonnaise along with the garlic clove and salt and pepper to taste.

Combine the beef with 2 tablespoons San-J Mongolian Sauce. Divide the meat into 4 equal portions. Form each portion loosely in a ¾ inch thick patty and, using your thumbs, make a deep depression into the center of each patty. Brush both sides of the burgers with oil and season generously with salt and pepper.

Grill the burgers over high heat for 3 – 4 minutes or until browned on the bottom and you see juices rising to the top. Flip the burger and grill for another 4 minutes for medium-rare or 5 – 6 minutes for medium. Remove the burgers from the grill and brush with remaining tablespoon of Mongolian Sauce.

Spread a little of the mayonnaise on the bottom buns, top with lettuce, a burger, and then slather the rest of the mayonnaise on top of the burgers. Top with the roasted red pepper strips, and serve.

If using a grill pan: Heat the grill pan on top of the stove over high heat until a drop of water sizzles immediately when splashed on the pan. Cook as above.
