# Preparation Steps:
01 -
Peel the yellow onion and slice into four 1/2-inch thick rounds. Drizzle each with olive oil, Worcestershire sauce, a pinch of Creole seasoning, and brown sugar. Heat a skillet over medium-low and slowly caramelize the onion rounds for approximately 10 minutes per side, ensuring a deep golden color and tender texture throughout. Reserve for assembly.
02 -
In a mixing bowl, season ground beef with Creole seasoning. Divide the meat into four equal portions and shape into balls, then flatten each into thin patties. In a skillet over medium-high heat, sear patties for 2 to 3 minutes per side until a well-browned crust develops and patties are cooked through.
03 -
Place one slice of American cheese onto each patty during the final minute of cooking, allowing the cheese to melt fully before removing patties from the skillet.
04 -
In a bowl, thoroughly combine mayonnaise, relish, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, sugar, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, Creole seasoning, and cayenne pepper. Whisk until the mixture is completely smooth.
05 -
On a plate, position one caramelized onion round as the base. Top with a cheesy beef patty, then add a spoonful of sauce. Cap with a second onion round to form the top layer. Repeat the process for remaining portions.
06 -
Serve the Flying Dutchman Burger immediately while hot, accompanied by extra sauce on the side as desired.
