Directions
- In a medium skillet, add olive oil and onion. Cover and cook over moderately low heat, stirring, until softened, 15 minutes.
- Uncover and cook over moderate heat, stirring, until the onion is caramelized, 20 minutes; add water if necessary to keep the onion from burning. Season with salt and pepper. Remove from heat.
- In a bowl, combine ground beef with 2 tbsp of mayonnaise and Worcestershire sauce.
- Form beef mixture into patties and season with salt and pepper.
- Heat a griddle or large nonstick pan and cook burgers over high heat for 2 minutes.
- Flip the burgers and top with cheddar cheese. Carefully cover the burgers with a large inverted roasting pan and cook for 2 minutes longer, until medium-rare and the cheese is melted.
- Spread the leftover mayonnaise on the bottom halves of the leaf lettuce and arrange burgers with onions on top to serve.
