Zuni burgers

4 servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
1¾ pounds Boneless beef chuck cut in 3\"x1\" strips
Fine sea salt
Freshly ground pepper
4 Squares focaccia, split
Tomato slices
Red onion slices

Directions

1. In a bowl, toss the meat with ½ tsp salt. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight. 2. Coarsely grind the meat in a meat grinder and shape into 1¼-inch-thick patties; work quickly so that the meat remains chilled.

3. Light a grill or heat a grill pan or cast-iron skillet. Season the burgers with salt and pepper and grill or pan-fry over moderately high heat, turning once, for about 4 min per side for medium rate or until done to your liking. Let rest for 2 min, then serve on the focaccia with the sliced tomato and red onion.
