If you love Caesar salad, you will adore this grilled burger that has
been mixed with Caesar dressing, a few croutons, garlic and lemon juice.
The addition of Parmesan cheese makes the burger juicier with every
bite. Serve on a grilled bun or wrap it in a lettuce leaf if you are
going low carb. For a lighter touch, substitute ground turkey or chicken
for the beef.
Ingredients
Serves 4
1 pound ground chuck or turkey
1/4 cup creamy Caesar dressing
2 cloves garlic, peeled and minced
1/4 medium yellow onion, peeled and grated
2 Tablespoons fresh lemon juice

1/4 cup (2 ounces) finely crumbled Parmesan cheese
1 cup croutons, crumbled

/Optional/

Condiments as desired (mustard, ketchup, relish or more Caesar dressing)

Directions
*Prep Time:* 20 minutes
*Chilling Time:* 10 minutes
*Grilling Time:* 10 minutes
*Total Time:* 40 minutes
1. Combine all ingredients except lettuce and buns in a large bowl.
If desired, include anchovy paste. Mix together with clean hands
and divide mixture into quarters. Form into four 1 1/2-inch-thick
patties. Wash hands thoroughly.
2. Cover patties with Saran? Premium Wrap. Place in the refrigerator
for about 10 minutes, or until the grill is hot.
3. Bring the grill to medium-high heat.
4. Lightly brush the grill with oil. Grill burgers over medium-high
heat until cooked through, about 5 minutes each side. Transfer to
a clean plate and serve on buns, with condiments of choice, or
over chopped lettuce.
*Chef?s Note:* To save time, combine Caesar dressing and seasonings the
day before and store in the refrigerator in an airtight container or
plastic bag until ready to use. Also, you can make the patties the day
before grilling, cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate; the flavors
will benefit from the extra chilling time.
*Diane's Tip:* Put Ziploc® Brand Sandwich Bags over your hands before
mixing and you won?t have to wash them afterward. Just throw away the bags!
