NOTES : These burgers have a bright flavor, but make sure you mix the
lemon juice in thoroughly so the ground meat doesn't cook in the acid.
List of Ingredients
1 head garlic
2 tablespoons olive oil -- (or less)
1 1/2 pounds ground chuck
1 tablespoon lemon zest -- grated
3 tablespoons lemon juice -- fresh
salt and pepper
Recipe
Heat oven to 350 degrees. Cut off top (pointed end) of garlic head,
exposing cloves. Place garlic head on square of aluminum foil,
drizzle with olive oil, then crimp foil loosely around garlic head.
Place in oven and roast until cloves are soft - about 45 minutes to 1
hour. Heat grill or broiler. In large bowl, combine ground meat,
lemon zest and juices. Squeeze out pulp from 4 garlic cloves and add
to bowl. Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste, then mix lightly
with wet hands. Form into 4 patties, each about 3/4 inch thick.
Grill or broil burgers about 10 minutes for medium rare, turning
once. To serve, top each with pulp from 2 or 3 garlic cloves.
