instructions
1
Prepare & roast the potatoes
Place an oven rack in the center of the oven; preheat to 450°F. Line a sheet pan with foil. Wash and dry the fresh produce. Halve the potatoes lengthwise, then cut crosswise into 1/2-inch pieces. Place in a medium bowl. Drizzle with olive oil and season with salt, pepper, and half the spice blend. Stir to thoroughly coat. Transfer to the sheet pan and arrange in an even layer. Roast 17 to 19 minutes, or until browned and tender when pierced with a fork. Remove from the oven.
2
Prepare the remaining ingredients
Meanwhile, thinly slice the cheese. Cut off and discard the stem of the pepper; thinly slice crosswise (for a milder dish, remove and discard the ribs and seeds). Thoroughly wash your hands, knife, and cutting board immediately after handling.
3
Form & cook the patties
In a bowl, combine the beef and remaining spice blend. Season with salt and pepper. Gently mix to combine. Form the mixture into two 1/2-inch-thick patties. In a medium pan (nonstick, if you have one), heat a drizzle of olive oil on medium-high until hot. Add the patties. Cook 4 to 5 minutes, or until browned. Flip the patties (carefully, as the oil may splatter) and evenly top with the sliced cheese. Loosely cover the pan with foil. Cook 4 to 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and the patties are browned and cooked through.* Leaving any browned bits (or fond) in the pan, transfer to a work surface. Carefully drain off and discard any excess oil.
*The USDA recommends cooking beef until an instant-read thermometer registers a minimum temperature of 160°F.
4
Make the spicy onions
To the pan of reserved fond, add as much of the sliced pepper as you'd like, depending on how spicy you'd like the dish to be. Cook on medium-high, stirring occasionally, 1 to 2 minutes, or until slightly softened. Add the caramelized onions and vinegar (carefully, as the liquid may splatter). Cook, stirring frequently, 3 to 4 minutes, or until heated through and most of the liquid has cooked off. Taste, then season with salt and pepper if desired. Transfer to a bowl. Wipe out the pan.
5
Toast the buns & serve your dish
Halve the buns. Add the halved buns, cut side down, to the same pan. Toast on medium-high 30 seconds to 1 minute, or until lightly browned. Transfer to a work surface. Assemble the burgers using the toasted buns, dijonnaise, cooked patties, and spicy onions. Serve the burgers with the roasted potatoes on the side. Enjoy!
