Time 45m

Yield serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 18

For the sauce:
1/2 cup mayonnaise
3 tablespoons sour cream
3 tablespoons roughly chopped fresh basil (or chives, parsley, mint)
1 scallion (white and green parts), trimmed and roughly chopped
1 garlic clove, quartered
1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
For the burgers:
1 1/4 pounds 80% lean ground beef
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/4 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
4 hamburger buns
1 tomato, cored, thinly sliced, and lightly salted
2 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese

Steps:

  • To make the sauce: Place the mayonnaise, sour cream, basil, scallion, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper in the bowl of a food processor and puree until creamy and pale green. Transfer to a small bowl, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate until you are ready to use it.
  • To make the burgers: Heat a charcoal or gas grill to medium-high. Divide the ground beef into 4 equal pieces and gently form into patties. Use your thumb to make a small indentation in the middle of each burger (this is so the burger grills flat and doesn't contract and puff up on the grill). Brush both sides of the burgers with the oil and then season with salt and pepper.
  • Place the burgers on the grill and cook until they have grill marks, about 4 minutes. Flip the burgers, cook 2 minutes longer, and then top each with about 1 tablespoon of the mozzarella. Cook the burgers 2 more minutes for medium-rare doneness and remove from the grill. Place the buns on the grill, cut side down, and lightly toast, 30 seconds to 1 minute.
  • Set a burger on each bottom bun half. Top with a salted tomato slice. Spread 1 tablespoon of the garlic-herb sauce on the top bun half, sprinkle with Parmesan, cover the burger, and serve with more sauce on the side for dipping.

These burgers were a bit too greasy for my taste, but the flavor was good.

I'm not a huge fan of garlic, but I still really enjoyed these burgers. The dressing was delicious, and the burgers were cooked perfectly.

These burgers were easy to make and turned out great! I used a different type of cheese than the recipe called for, and it was still delicious.

I made these burgers last night and they were a hit! My husband and kids loved them. The garlic dressing was a great addition, and it really made the burgers stand out.

These burgers were amazing! I used a bit more garlic in the dressing than the recipe called for, and it was perfect. The burgers were juicy and flavorful, and the dressing was creamy and tangy. I will definitely be making these again.
