Directions
Step 1 –Preheat the grill to medium heat.
Step 2 –Drain the sun-dried tomatoes, reserving 1/3 cup of the oil.
Step 3 –In a large skillet, sauté the sliced onions in 3 tablespoons of the reserved oil until softened, about 3-4 minutes.
Step 4 –Add the balsamic vinegar to the onions and reduce the heat to medium-low.
Step 5 –Cook the onion mixture, stirring occasionally, until the onions are deep golden-brown, about 30-40 minutes.
Step 6 –Chop the sun-dried tomatoes and transfer them to a large bowl.
Step 7 –Add the red onion, the dried basil, the cumin, the ground chipotle pepper, the salt, the pepper, and the remaining reserved oil to the tomatoes.
Step 8 –Crumble the beef over the tomato mixture and mix gently, but well.
Step 9 –Shape the beef mixture into 16 thin patties.
Step 10 –Place 2 tablespoons of the goat cheese in the center of eight of the patties.
Step 11 –Top the goat cheese-topped patties with the remaining patties and press the edges firmly to seal, creating eight stuffed burgers.
Step 12 –Grill the burgers, covered, until each reaches an internal temperature of 160 degrees F, about 5-7 minutes on each side.
Step 13 –Place the buns, cut-side down, on the grill until toasted, 1-2 minutes.
Step 14 –Place the burgers on the buns and top with the caramelized onions and the mixed greens.
Step 15 –Serve.
