Herbed Hamburgers With Arugula Recipes

Steps:

• Cook the steaks: Combine the breadcrumbs, 1/4 cup of the Parmesan, and parsley in a bowl.
• Put the flour in another bowl, and beat eggs in a third bowl. Set the three bowls side by side, flour, eggs, breadcrumbs.
• Season the steaks with salt and pepper. Lightly coat both sides with the flour and dredge steaks first in the egg and then in the breadcrumb mixture. Repeat this with all steaks.
• Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat; add 2 tablespoons of the oil and cook half of the steaks in a single layer for 2 minutes on each side. Repeat with the remaining oil and steaks. Set aside on a plate tented with kitchen foil and let rest for 5 minutes.
• Make the arugula salad: In a bowl, toss together ingredients for arugula salad.
• To serve: Top each steak with arugula salad.

Steps:

• In a bowl gently combine beef and thyme and form into two 3/4-inch-thick patties. In a heavy skillet (preferably cast iron) heat oil over moderately high heat until hot but not smoking and reduce heat to moderate. Cook patties 3 1/2 minutes on each side for medium-rare meat and drain on paper towels.
• Spread mayonnaise on insides of rolls and buns and make sandwiches with onion, arugula, and patties.

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil and 1 tablespoon butter over medium heat. Add onions, season with salt and pepper and cook until caramelized and sweet, about 20 minutes. Stir sugar and water into onions then add mustard, combine and turn off heat.
• Combine meat with garlic, Worcestershire, parsley, salt and pepper, form 4 patties thinner at the center and thicker at the edges for even cooking. Also, the burgers will bulge as they cook, this will give the cooked burgers an even thickness. Cook patties 8 minutes turning once for medium doneness, 1 to 2 minutes less for rare patties, 1 to 2 minutes more for burgers that are medium well. In the last minute of cooking time, top burgers with a few slices of Cambozola blue.
• Place burgers on bun bottoms and top with some arugula and mustard glazed onions, set tops in place.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. Cut 1/4 off each pita (a half-moon shape from 10 o'clock to 2 o'clock). Chop half-moons, transfer to a bowl and sprinkle with milk. Let soak 5 minutes. Drain and squeeze out excess milk. Purée soaked bread, onion, garlic, herbs and lemon juice in a blender or food processor. Transfer purée to a bowl. Add lamb, season with salt and pepper and combine. Form into 4 patties. Wrap pitas in foil and heat until warm, about 8 minutes. (Or place pitas between sheets of paper towel and microwave until warm, about 30 seconds.) Heat oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until hot. Cook burgers to medium, 2 to 3 minutes on each side. Whisk yogurt, mint, garlic, mustard and honey in a bowl. Stir in cucumber and season with salt and pepper. Open each pita, stuff with arugula and drizzle with some of the dressing. Add burger, tomato and red onion to pita. Sprinkle with feta. Serve leftover dressing on the side.
