Asian-Style Pork Sliders Made in a Muffin Tin

Ingredients
  

For the Sliders:

  • Cooking spray
  • 1-½ pounds ground pork
  • 2 tbsp. ground ginger
  • 1 bunch green onions, chopped
  • ½ cup soy sauce
  • ½ cup sriracha, plus more for serving, optional
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • 12 King's Hawaiian rolls, halved
  • Mayonnaise

For the Toppings:

  • Lettuce
  • Sliced avocado
  • Kimchi
  • Cilantro
  • Pickled ginger

Instructions
 

  • Pre-heat the oven to 450°F.
  • Spray a 2-inch to 3-inch-wide bottom muffin tin; set aside with a second muffin tin that's the same size, if you have one. 
  • In a large bowl, using your hands, mix the pork, ginger, green onions, soy sauce and sriracha.
  • Using a cookie scoop or your hands, make about twelve 2-ounce to 3-ounce balls.
  • Place the balls in the prepared muffin tin and, using the second muffin tin (if available), smash the balls to flatten; if only 1 muffin tin is available, use the bottom of a bottle covered with plastic wrap.
  • Place in the pre-heated oven and bake the smashed patties until cooked through and browning on the edges; 5 to 7 minutes.    
  • Meanwhile, spread the rolls with mayonnaise; place on a baking sheet and toast in the same oven: remove from oven once toasted.
  • When the burgers are ready, place each one on a toasted roll and top with lettuce, avocado, kimchi, cilantro and pickled ginger.
  • Alternatively, you can make a "burger bar" and have all the toppings nicely laid out for everyone to make their own burger; don't forget the extra sriracha.
