Recipe type: Main
Serves: 4 burgers
Ingredients
  • 650 g chorizo sausage, casings removed
  • 2 small onions, sliced thin
  • 1 Tbsp butter
  • 6 cups packed kale, roughly chopped*
  • 4 large slices provolone cheese
  • Ciabatta buns, to serve
Instructions
  1. In a skillet over medium heat, saute onions in oil until softened, about 5 minutes. Turn heat to low and cook, stirring occasionally, until onions are soft and golden brown. Be patient - the best caramelized onions are cooked low and slow.
  2. Shape sausage meat into 4 patties. Light a grill to medium-high heat and grill the burgers, about 7 minutes per side, until fully cooked. Add cheese slices to the top of the burgers for the last minute of cooking.
  3. While burgers are cooking, add kale and ½ cup of water to the skillet with the onions. Turn heat up to medium and saute until kale has cooked down and softened, about 10 minutes.
  4. Serve burgers on buns with a generous topping of spinach and onion mixture.
Notes
*Before chopping, massage kale leaves with your hands for 2 minutes. This will help soften the leaves and lessen their bitter taste. It's weird, but it works. Massage those leaves!
