step 1

Prepare the ingredients & make the slaw

Wash and dry the fresh produce. Thinly slice the scallions, separating the white bottoms and hollow green tops. Quarter the lime(s). Thinly slice the cucumber(s) on an angle. Place in a bowl; add the juice of 2 lime wedges (or 4 wedges for 4 servings). Stir to coat. Set aside to marinate, stirring occasionally. In a large bowl, combine the dressing and the juice of the remaining lime wedges. Add the cabbage and carrots and sliced green tops of the scallions; season with salt and pepper. Stir to coat.

Form & cook the patties

In a bowl, combine the beef, mushroom duxelles, cornstarch, and sliced white bottoms of the scallions; season with salt and pepper. Gently mix to combine. Form the mixture into 4 patties (or 8 patties for 4 servings), about 1/2-inch thick. In a medium nonstick pan (or large for 4 servings), heat a drizzle of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the patties. Cook 2 to 3 minutes per side, pressing down on the patties with a spatula to flatten, or until browned and cooked through. Turn off the heat.

The USDA recommends a minimum safe cooking temperature of 160°F for beef.
