Vive la French Onions!
I’ve made my share of French Onion soup. Some batches have turned out excellent and some were pretty bad. This biggest reason for the difference was the star of the show – onions. While the type of onion is important, it is much more important to cook them the right way. The right cooking properly caramelizes the onions making them soft and sweet. Take time to do it right.

French Onion Burgers
Prep Time: 0 hours 10 minutes | Cook Time: 0 hours 30 minutes | Servings: 4 servings | Difficulty: Easy
Ingredients:
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil 1 large onion, halved and thinly sliced 1/2 teaspoon sugar Kosher salt 1/2 cup low-sodium chicken broth 2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce 1 1/2 pounds ground beef 1 teaspoon onion powder 4 brioche or hamburger buns, split 2 cups shredded gruyere cheese (about 6 ounces) 2 tablespoons grated parmesan cheese Dijon mustard, lettuce and potato chips, for serving (optional)
Directions:
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until it starts to brown, 3 to 4 minutes.
Add the sugar and 1/2 teaspoon salt, reduce the heat to medium low and cook, stirring occasionally, until deep golden, 15 more minutes.
Add the chicken broth and 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce and simmer until the onion is tender and the liquid is almost evaporated, 8 minutes.
Preheat the broiler. Mix the beef, onion powder and the remaining 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce in a bowl with your hands. Form into four 3/4-inch-thick patties and place on a broiler pan. Make an indentation in the center of each with your thumb; season the patties with salt. Broil, turning once, 5 minutes.
Place the buns cut-side up on a baking sheet. Sprinkle with both cheeses and broil until melted, about 1 minute. Spread mustard on the buns; sandwich with lettuce, the burgers and caramelized onion. Serve with potato chips.
