    Makes 4 servings

Ingredients

1 1/4 pounds ground beef chuck
1 medium onion, finely chopped
1/2 large red bell pepper, diced
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/3 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1 teaspoon dried oregano
2 teaspoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
4 hamburger buns, split
2 cups thinly sliced green cabbage
1 medium carrot, coarsely grated
1 small red onion, cut into rings
1 medium tomato, sliced 1/4 inch thick
2 tablespoons ketchup
2 tablespoons mayonnaise
1 tablespoon yellow mustard

Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Mix the beef, onion, bell pepper, garlic, cilantro, oregano, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Form into 4 (4 1/2-inch-wide) patties.

    Step 2

    Heat a large griddle or 12-inch heavy skillet over medium heat until hot, then lightly toast the buns.

    Step 3

    Oil the griddle, then cook the patties, turning once, about 8 minutes total for medium-rare. Transfer to the buns.

    Step 4

    Mix the cabbage, carrot, and salt to taste, then cook, turning occasionally, until slightly wilted, about 2 minutes. Divide among burgers.

    Step 5

    Oil the griddle again, then sear the onion and tomato, turning once, until slightly charred, about 2 minutes total. Divide among burgers.

    Step 6

    Stir together the ketchup, mayonnaise, and mustard, then top burgers with sauce.
