French Onion Beef Sliders
Ingredients
- 1 pack of potato rolls
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1 round of Boursin cheese You could double this if you want it really cheesy
- 1 large sweet onion
- Sea salt
- Pepper
- Chives
- 1 tsp neutral oil
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tbsp butter
- 2 tbsp balsamic
- Drizzle of balsamic glaze
Instructions
- Add neutral oil to skillet and add garlic clove. Cook for about 2 min and then add ground beef. Season with salt and pepper. Cook, breaking the beef up with a wooden spoon into small pieces, until cooked through, about 5 minutes. Add balsamic, and garlic powder. Cook, stirring constantly, until deeply browned in spots, about 2 minutes. Remove the pan from the heat and transfer beef to a bowl.
- Wipe pan clean. Using a mandolin, or carefully with a knife, thinly slice onions. Add butter to skillet and then add onions. Cook on medium heat, stirring often for about 25-35 min or until onions have softened completely and become jammy and browned. If pan gets dry, add a little splash of water to keep from sticking or burning.
- Spread boursin cheese on potato rolls and then stack with a layer of ground beef and a layer of caramelized onions. Dice chives and sprinkle overtop along with another drizzle of balsamic glaze. Close and serve. Enjoy!
