I couldn't find a good recipe for the kind of ground beef lettuce wrap that I wanted, so I created one. For the pepper sauce I definitely recommend Try Me Tiger Sauce, which has other flavors besides hot pepper. The burgers don't have to be chilled, but chilling gives them a better texture and makes them hold together better. Prep time does not include chilling time. Ingredients:
1 large roma tomato, cut in small dice |
2 tablespoons finely diced red onions |
2 tablespoons finely diced red bell peppers |
1/4 teaspoon salt (or to taste) |
1/4 teaspoon black pepper (or to taste) |
1/2 lime, juice of |
2 lbs ground beef |
4 tablespoons tropical-flavored teriyaki sauce (soy vay brand island teriyaki recommended) |
2 tablespoons mild pepper sauce (try me tiger sauce brand recommended) |
1 teaspoon garlic powder |
1 teaspoon beef base |
2 tablespoons tropical-flavored teriyaki sauce (soy vay brand island teriyaki recommended) |
1 tablespoon mild pepper sauce (try me tiger sauce brand recommended) |
1/4 cup red wine |
1/8 teaspoon finely minced jalapeno (or to taste) |
1 dash red wine vinegar |
8 lettuce leaves |
8 -16 leaves fresh basil |
Directions:
1. Combine all relish ingredients in a small bowl.
2. Mix well.
3. Cover and refrigerate until needed.
4. Combine ground beef, teriyaki sauce, pepper sauce, and garlic powder in a large bowl.
5. Mix well by hand.
6. Shape into 8 hot-dog-shaped cylinders.
7. Place burgers on a plate and sprinkle with beef base.
8. Cover with plastic wrap or foil and refrigerate at least 2 hours. This step is optional.
9. Heat a skillet over medium-high heat.
10. Add burgers and brown well, about 3 minutes.
11. Add remaining teriyaki and pepper sauce, wine, jalapeno and vinegar.
12. Stir gently.
13. Cover, reduce heat and simmer 10 minutes, or until desired degree of doneness is reached, stirring occasionally.
14. To serve, place a burger on each lettuce leaf.
15. Place a spoonful of relish next to each burger and top with 1-2 leaves fresh basil.
16. Drizzle some of the pan juices over the meat.
