Step-by-Step Instructions:
Step 1: Thawing Your Patties
Remove the Quicksear burger patties from the freezer.
- Note: For overnight thawing, use the refrigerator. For a quicker thaw, leave the patties on the counter until they reach room temperature.
Step 2: Reheating Your Patties
Prepare a hot water bath with hot tap water in a large bowl. The water should not be boiling.
- Submerge the packaged Quicksear burger patties in the water and let them sit for 10 minutes.
- After 10 minutes, replace the water with fresh hot tap water and submerge the patties for another 10 minutes.
Step 3: Preparing Sriracha Honey Sauce
In a small bowl, mix 1/4 cup of sriracha sauce with 1/4 cup of honey. Stir until well combined.
Step 4: Frying Onion Rings
Heat vegetable oil in a frying pan over medium heat until it reaches about 350°F.
- While the oil is heating, prepare a batter by mixing 1 cup of all-purpose flour with 1/2 cup of cold water and 1/2 teaspoon of salt to form a smooth, thick batter.
- Dip each onion ring in the batter, ensuring it’s fully coated.
- Fry the onion rings in batches until they are golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side. Place them on a paper towel to drain excess oil.
Step 5: Searing Your Patties
Remove the burger patties from the packaging and pat them dry with paper towels.
- Preheat your grill or pan over high heat. If pan-searing, add 1-2 tablespoons of vegetable oil.
- Sear the patties for 1 minute on each side, or until a golden-brown crust forms.
Step 6: Assembling Your Burgers
Spread mayonnaise on the toasted buns.
- Place the seared burger patties on the buns.
- Drizzle a generous amount of sriracha honey sauce over each patty.
- Top with crispy onion rings and cilantro leaves.
