Description
Delicious and juicy mushroom Swiss burgers, perfect for a cozy dinner.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb ground beef (80/20 preferred)
- 4 slices Swiss cheese
- 8 oz mushrooms (cremini or white button), sliced
- 1 onion, thinly sliced (optional)
- 2 tbsp butter
- 1 tbsp oil
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce (optional)
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- 4 burger buns (brioche preferred)
- Mayonnaise or burger sauce for spreading
Instructions
- Heat a skillet on medium to medium-high. Add oil and butter, then toss in the sliced mushrooms and onions. Let sit for a minute before stirring.
- After the mushrooms start browning, add salt, pepper, and garlic. Optionally, add Worcestershire sauce. Cook until glossy, about 8-12 minutes.
- Shape the ground beef into patties, slightly wider than buns, and make a dimple in the center.
- Season patties with salt and pepper, then cook on medium-high until a good crust forms.
- Add Swiss cheese on each patty in the last minute of cooking. Cover to melt.
- Toast the buns in a pan until golden brown.
- Assemble the burgers: spread mayo on the bun, add cheese patty, pile on cooked mushrooms, and close the bun.
Notes
For a lighter option, turkey patties can be used with added moisture. Serve with crispy sides like fries or a simple salad.
