Once the onions are caramelized, remove them from the skillet and set aside. Add the ground beef patties to the same skillet (add a little more olive oil if needed). Cook the patties for 4-5 minutes per side, or until browned and cooked through to your desired doneness. Drain any excess grease from the pan.
