Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 4 teaspoons olive oil; 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper; 1 small clove garlic, minced; 1/4 cup creamy natural peanut butter; 2 tablespoons ketchup; 1 large carrot, thinly shaved into ribbons with a vegetable peeler; 1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice; Pinch ground cumin; Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper; 1 1/2 pounds ground chuck; 3 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro; 3 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley; 2 scallions, finely chopped; 4 hamburger buns, lightly toasted

Directions

Heat 2 teaspoons of the oil in a small skillet over medium heat; add the cayenne and garlic and cook, stirring, until just golden, about 1 minute. Add the peanut butter, ketchup and 1/4 cup water and stir until incorporated. Transfer to a bowl. Toss the carrots with the lemon juice, cumin and salt and black pepper to taste.
Mix the beef with the cilantro, parsley, scallions, 1 teaspoon salt and ¼ teaspoon black pepper using your hands until just combined. Form into four 3/4-inch-thick patties, about 4 1/2; inches in diameter. Heat the remaining 2 teaspoons oil in a large cast-iron skillet or griddle over medium-high heat. Cook the burgers, turning once, about 4 minutes 30 seconds per side for medium.
Assemble the burgers on the hamburger buns with the peanut sauce and carrots.
