Description
Juicy beef patties topped with sautéed mushrooms, melted Swiss cheese, and served on brioche buns for a flavorful twist on the classic burger.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound ground beef (80/20 blend)
- 8 ounces mushrooms (sliced)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 slices Swiss cheese
- 4 hamburger buns (brioche preferred)
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter (for buns)
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 clove garlic (minced)
- Fresh lettuce leaves
- Tomato slices (optional)
Instructions
- In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add sliced mushrooms and sauté for 5-7 minutes until softened and browned. Stir in minced garlic in the last minute. Remove from heat and set aside.
- In a bowl, combine ground beef, salt, pepper, and Worcestershire sauce. Mix gently and form into 4 equal patties, about 1/2 inch thick.
- Heat a grill or skillet to medium-high heat. Cook patties for 4-5 minutes per side for medium doneness, or until internal temperature reaches 160°F.
- In the last minute of cooking, top each patty with a slice of Swiss cheese and allow to melt.
- While patties cook, butter the buns and toast lightly.
- Assemble burgers: Place lettuce leaves on bottom bun, add patty with melted cheese, top with sautéed mushrooms, tomato slices if using, and top bun. Serve immediately.
Notes
For extra flavor, marinate the beef with the Worcestershire sauce for 30 minutes before forming patties. Adjust seasonings to taste, and serve with your favorite sides like fries or a salad.
