Savory Oklahoma Onion Sliders: A Tasty Twist on Classic Burgers
Hamburger sliders with sauteed onions on Hawaiian rolls.
Equipment
- griddle or frying pan (cast iron frying pan preferred)
- 2 spatulas for flipping burgers
Ingredients
- 1 pound hamburger
- 1 large sweet onion
- salt
- pepper
- 3 slices cheese
- 6 Hawaiian rolls (original)
- 1 tablespoon butter
Instructions
- Divide out 6 Hawaiian rolls. Slice them horizontally to make a top and bottom. Separate all the pieces. You should have 6 tops and 6 bottoms. Set aside.
- Cut the onion into extra thin slices. Set aside.
- Make 6 balls out of the hamburger. Season with salt and pepper.
- Heat the griddle or frying pan on high heat until hot.
- Add the burger balls and smash them flat with a spatula, making them thinner around the edges. Divide the onions and place them on top of each burger.
- Cook for 2-5 minutes until the burgers are crispy around the edges. Use 2 spatulas to flip each burger, one to flip, and one to hold the onions in place. Cut the cheese and place a piece on the top of each burger.
- Melt the butter on the side of the griddle (or in a separate frying pan) and toast the inside of each Hawaiian roll. Then, place a bottom roll on each burger as they cook. Ensure that only the inside of a roll is against the cheese in case it sticks. Place top rolls on top of bottom rolls (to have a place to set them while they steam). Cover with a lid to let the rolls steam and soften. You can cover them with aluminum foil if you don't have a lid. Cook until the burgers are 160 degrees F. in the thickest part.
- Remove the top roll half from the sliders. Then, take the burgers off the heat, flip them, and add a roll to the bottom. Serve.
