Ingredients

• 1/2 cup rice vinegar
• 1/2 cup water
• 1/4 cup granulated sugar
• 1 cup shaved English cucumber
• 1 cup matchstick-cut carrots
• 6 tbsp mayo
• 2 tbsp Sriracha
• 1 tbsp fresh lime juice
• 1 lb. ground beef
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 2 tsp grated garlic
• 1 tsp grated peeled fresh ginger
• 3/4 tsp black pepper
• Cooking spray
• 4 burger buns, split and toasted
• 1 1/2 cups loosely packed cilantro sprigs
• 2 serrano chiles, thinly sliced

Directions

1. Bring vinegar, 1/2 cup water, and sugar to a boil in a small saucepan over high. Combine cucumber and carrots in a heatproof bowl; pour hot vinegar mixture over vegetables. Cover and chill at least 15 minutes or up to 3 days.

2. Stir together mayo, Sriracha, and lime juice; set aside.

3. Preheat grill to medium-high. Combine beef, oil, garlic, ginger and black pepper in a bowl; gently mix just until ingredients are incorporated. Shape mixture into 4 patties. Place patties on a grill grate coated with cooking spray. Grill, covered, until cooked to desired doneness, about 3 minutes per side. Remove from heat, and keep warm.

4. Spread about 1 tbsp mayo mixture on each bun half. Place 1 burger patty on each bun bottom. Drain cucumber mixture; place about 1/4 cup on each burger. Divide cilantro and chiles among burgers. Cover with bun tops.
