How to Make French Onion Soup Burgers
  1. In a skillet over medium heat, melt the butter until bubbly. Add the sliced onions and cook them for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until they're golden brown and beautifully caramelized.
  2. Take the ground beef and shape it into four equal patties. Season both sides generously with salt and pepper.
  3. Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for 4-5 minutes on each side until they reach your desired level of doneness.
  4. In the last minute of cooking, place a slice of Swiss cheese on top of each patty. Cover briefly to allow the cheese to melt.
  5. Spread a generous layer of the caramelized onions on top of the cheesy patties before placing them on your burger buns. Drizzle with beef broth if desired.
  6. Plate your French Onion Soup Burgers, and enjoy them alongside fries or a crisp salad for a complete meal!

Cut your onions evenly for the best flavor and avoid pressing the patties while cooking to keep them juicy. Use a lid to melt the cheese perfectly.
