Directions

In a small bowl, combine the bulgur with 1/2 cup warm water; let stand for 30 min, or until the bulgur is tender and the water is absorbed.

In a large non-stick skillet, heat oil over low heat.

Add onions and sugar; sauté until the onions are tender and dark golden, about 15 min.

Season with salt and keep warm.

Prepare the grill or preheat the broiler.

In a medium bowl, combine the bulgur, beef, tomato paste, parsley, 1/2 tsp salt and pepper; mix thoroughly but lightly.

Shape into four 3/4-inch-thick patties.

Grill over high heat or broil on a lightly oiled rack until browned and cooked through, about 5 min per side.

Blot the patties with paper towels. Place each patty on a bun, top with the caramelized onions and garnish with lettuce.

10 Minute Szechuan Chicken

This recipe is easy and delicious!! We made a few changes: used thin chicken breasts (or you can pound them flat), add grated ginger, less soy sauce, substitute honey for the suger and chili oil for the cayenne pepper. We ate it with veggie fried rice (made in the same wok for easy cleanup). Yum!
