Step-By-Step Instructions

Add some olive oil to a skillet. Add the onions and sauté them until golden brown.
Mix beef, parsley, ranch seasoning, pepper, salt, garlic, and onions in a large bowl.
Take the meat mixture and form into burger patties.
Cook the burgers in the skillet or on a preheated grill to the perfect internal temperature.
Top with cheddar cheese until it’s deliciously melted.
Serve on buns with tomato, lettuce, and your favorite sauce.

Variations and Burger Toppings

Swap beef out and make ground turkey burgers for a healthier meal.
Add bread crumbs or a spice rub.
Try a homemade zesty ranch dip on the side for a creamy twist!
Sprinkle some Worcestershire sauce into the burgers before cooking for some zing!
Slice up some red onion to add to the top, along with lettuce, tomato, and pickles.
Get plenty of slices of cheese for everyone. Try Cheddar, American, or even pepper jack.

Tips

Press the center of each patty for even cooking.
Use a meat thermometer to ensure the perfect doneness. Hamburgers should reach an internal temperature of 160 degrees. You can cook them longer for a more well-done burger.
You can use different cooking methods, such as a skillet, outdoor grill, or air fryer, to make the burgers. I personally like a cast-iron pan to make the burgers.

Ingredient Substitutions

Swap olive oil with your preferred cooking oil.
Use turkey or chicken for a lighter version.
Add some jalapeños into the meat mixture for a spicy burger.

Dish Pairings with Ranch Burgers
