POMEGRANATE FETA BISON BURGERS image

Yield 4 burgers

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 large yellow onion, sliced
1 tablespoon butter
1 pound ground bison
1 clove garlic, minced
1/2 cup crumbled feta
pomegranate arils from 1 pomegranate
splash worcestershire sauce
salt and pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 cup pomegranate juice
1 tablespoon cornstarch
2 tablespoons water
watercress
4 buns

Steps:

Add the butter to a large skillet over medium-low heat. Once melted, add the onion slices and cook, stirring only a few times for about 30 minutes until deep golden brown and caramelized. While the onions cook, combine the bison, garlic, feta, 1/2 C of the pomegranate arils, worcestershire, salt and pepper in a large bowl. Mix together well and form into 4 patties. Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Place the patties in the skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes per side, depending on preference. Transfer the hamburgers to a dish and loosely cover. Add the pomegranate juice to the same skillet. Whisk together the cornstarch and water in a small bowl then pour into the skillet, whisking as you do so. Cook the juice down until reduced by about half and thickened. Add the remaining pomegranate arils to the skillet and stir. Remove from heat and set aside. Assemble the burgers by placing the watercress on the bottom bun, then the burger, then the caramelized onions, pomegranate sauce, extra feta cheese, more watercress and then the top bun.
