Yield: 4 burgers

Ingredients

6

Tbsp. creamy peanut butter
3 Tbsp. sour cream
2 Tbsp. fresh lime juice
4 tsp. soy sauce
11/4 lbs. ground chuck
2 Tbsp. chopped fresh coriander
2 tsp. grated peeled fresh gingerroot
1/2 tsp. dried hot red pepper flakes
4   sesame buns
4   soft-leafed lettuce leaves

Steps for Preparation

  1. In a small bowl stir together peanut butter, sour cream, 1 tablespoon lime juice, and 2 teaspoons soy sauce until combined.

  2. In a large bowl blend together ground chuck, remaining 2 teaspoons soy sauce, remaining tablespoon lime juice, coriander, gingerroot, red pepper flakes, and salt and pepper to taste until just combined.

  3. Form mixture into four 1-inch-thick patties. When forming patties, handle meat as little as possible for a juicier burger.

  4. Prepare grill.

  5. Grill burgers on an oiled rack set 5 to 6 inches over glowing coals about 4 1/2 minutes on each side. Use the Cook'd Right® Sensor to check doneness of patties.

    a) Quickly insert dark sensor tip into center of meat. Wait 5-10 seconds.

    b) Remove sensor tip and check color.

    c) Continue checking with the same sensor until done. Sensor tip will be completely orange.

    d) Discard sensor when finished.

  6. Toast sesame buns. Transfer burgers to buns and top with peanut sauce and lettuce.
