Prep Time10 minsCook Time5 minsTotal Time15 mins

Get the party started with bite-sized Ontario bison sliders. A great make-ahead dish, these appetizers are low in fat and big on flavour. Serve on their own or with slider buns and your favourite toppings.

 1 tbsp (15 mL) canola oil
 ¾ cup (175 mL) finely chopped onion
 1 egg
 ¼ cup (50 mL) bread crumbs
 1 tbsp (15 mL) grainy mustard
 1 tsp (5 mL) dried rosemary
 ½ tsp (2 mL) crumbled dried thyme
 ½ tsp (2 mL) each, salt and fresh cracked pepper
 ½ cup (125 mL) crumbled goat cheese feta
 1 lb (500 g) ground Ontario bison
 8 slider buns (or 4 hamburger buns)
Steps:
1

In skillet, heat oil over medium heat; cook onion, stirring often, until softened and golden, about 10 minutes.

2

Meanwhile, in large bowl, mix egg, bread crumbs, mustard, rosemary, thyme, salt and pepper. Add onions, feta, and bison; mix until just combined. Shape into four 3/4-inch (2 cm) thick patties.

3

Place patties on greased grill over medium heat; close lid and grill, turning once, until no longer pink inside and digital thermometer inserted sideways into centre reads 160°F (71°C), about 10 minutes. Sandwich in buns with your favourite toppings.
