Description
French Onion Beef Sloppy Joes are a delightful twist on a classic favorite, featuring rich, savory caramelized onions and tender beef.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound ground beef
- 2 large onions, thinly sliced
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup beef broth
- 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 cup shredded Swiss cheese
- 4 hamburger buns, preferably toasted
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (for garnish)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and a pinch of salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 15-20 minutes or until the onions are caramelized and golden brown.
- Once the onions are caramelized, add the minced garlic to the skillet and cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, until fragrant.
- Push the onions to one side of the skillet and add the ground beef to the other side. Break the beef apart with a spatula and cook until browned, about 5-7 minutes. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Once the beef is cooked, mix it with the onions. Pour in the beef broth, Worcestershire sauce, and Dijon mustard. Stir everything together and let it simmer for about 5-10 minutes.
- After the mixture has thickened, sprinkle the shredded Swiss cheese over the top. Cover the skillet with a lid and let it cook for another 2-3 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- While the cheese is melting, toast the hamburger buns in a toaster or on a skillet until golden brown.
- Spoon a generous amount of the beef and onion mixture onto the bottom half of each toasted bun. Top with the other half of the bun.
- Sprinkle chopped fresh parsley over the top for a pop of color and freshness. Serve immediately while warm.
