Ingredients
- 1 pound ground pork
- 3/4 teaspoon fennel seeds
- 1 tablespoon olive oil

- 1 small yellow onion, thinly sliced
- Coarse salt and ground pepper
- 2 teaspoons red-wine vinegar
- 4 slices fresh mozzarella

Directions
- Heat a grill to medium-high. Clean and lightly oil hot grill. In a bowl, mix pork with fennel seeds. Form into 4 patties. On a large piece of foil, combine oil, peppers, and onion. Season with salt and pepper. Fold foil around vegetables and crimp ends. Grill packet until vegetables are crisp-tender, about 8 minutes. Season patties with salt and pepper.

Cook's Note
Indoor method: In an oiled grill pan or cast-iron skillet, cook vegetables over medium-high. Wipe skillet clean; cook burgers in same pan.
