2 TB organic cilantro
1 TB organic flat leaf parsley
2-inch section of organic ginger, grated
3 cloves organic garlic, pressed
zest and juice of one organic lime
2 TB fish sauce {I use Red Boat}
2 TB raw organic coconut aminos {I use Coconut Secret}
1-lb grassfed/finished ground beef, room temperature
Optional: 1/2 organic yellow onion, sliced
Fat of choice

Steps:

Chop the cilantro and parsley together. Add ginger and garlic to the herbs and run your knife through them to combine. Whisk in the lime zest and juice, fish sauce, and coconut aminos. For the burgers: Mix half the sauce in with ground beef. Form into four patties, indenting the center with your thumb. Set aside. For the optional caramelized onions, heat a medium cast iron skillet over medium-high heat with your fat of choice. Sauté onion slices until cooked through and sweet. Brush some bacon fat {or fat of choice} on a cast iron grill pan. Bring to medium-high heat. Place prepared burger patties on the grill pan, indent side up. Cook for 4-5 minutes, until juices show in the indent. Flip once, let cook another 3-4 minutes. I test its doneness by touch; pressing the center of the burger should give the same feedback as when I press the meaty part at the base of my thumb. Semi-firm with a bit of resistance will be medium. When I am cooking the kids' burgers I let them go another minute or two until they are as firm as the bridge of my nose. Top with extra sauce and optional caramelized onion.
