Teriyaki Beef Burgers Recipe
Teriyaki Beef Burgers
1 ½ lbs. lean ground beef (90% lean)
1 can (8 oz.) water chestnuts, drained and chopped
½ cup reduced-sodium soy sauce
1/3 cup sherry or reduced-sodium beef broth
2 green onions
1 Tbsp. brown sugar
2 garlic cloves, minced
½ tsp. ground ginger
6 lettuce leaves
6 hamburger buns, split
In a large bowl, combine the beef and water chestnuts. Shape into six patties. Place in a 13 x 9 inch dish.
In a small bowl, combine the soy sauce, sherry or broth, onions, brown sugar, garlic and ginger. Pour ½ cup over patties; cover and refrigerate for 2-3 hours or overnight. Cover and refrigerate remaining marinade for basting.
Drain and discard marinade. Using long-handled tongs, moisten a paper towel with cooking oil and lightly coat the grill rack. Grill patties, covered, over medium heat or broil 4 inch from the heat for 5-7 minutes on each side or until a meat thermometer reads 160 F. and juices run clear, basting occasionally with reserved marinade. Serve on lettuce-lines buns. 6 servings
