Ingredients:
For the Burger Patties:
1 lb (450g) ground beef (80% lean) 🥩
1 tsp salt 🧂
1/2 tsp black pepper 🧂
1/2 tsp garlic powder 🧄
1/2 tsp onion powder 🧅
1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce 🌟 (optional)
For the Mushroom Topping:
2 cups sliced mushrooms 🍄
1 tbsp butter 🧈
1 tbsp olive oil 🧴
1/2 cup finely chopped onion 🧅
2 cloves garlic, minced 🧄
1/4 cup beef broth or white wine (optional) 🍷
Salt and pepper to taste 🧂
For Assembly:
4 slices Swiss cheese 🧀
4 hamburger buns, toasted 🍞
Lettuce leaves 🥬
Tomato slices 🍅
Pickles (optional) 🥒
Mayonnaise, mustard, or your favorite condiments 🥄
Instructions:
1. Prepare the Burger Patties:
In a large bowl, gently mix together the ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, and Worcestershire sauce if using. 🥩🧂
Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape them into patties. Use your thumb to create a small indentation in the center of each patty to help it cook evenly. 🍔
2. Cook the Mushrooms:
Heat the butter and olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. 🧴🔥
Add the chopped onions and cook until they become translucent (about 2-3 minutes). 🧅
Add the sliced mushrooms and cook until they release their moisture and start to brown (about 5-7 minutes). 🍄
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for an additional minute. 🧄
If desired, deglaze the pan with beef broth or white wine and cook until the liquid evaporates. Season with salt and pepper to taste. 🍷🧂
3. Cook the Burger Patties:
Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. 🍔🔥
Cook the burger patties for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until they reach your desired level of doneness. During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of Swiss cheese on each patty and cover the skillet to melt the cheese. 🧀
4. Assemble the Burgers:
Toast the hamburger buns if desired. 🍞
Spread mayonnaise, mustard, or your favorite condiments on the bottom half of each bun. 🥄
Place a lettuce leaf on each bun, followed by a slice of tomato and pickles if using. 🥬🍅🥒
Add the cooked burger patty with melted Swiss cheese on top of the vegetables. 🍔🧀
Spoon the sautéed mushrooms over the cheese. 🍄
Top with the other half of the toasted bun.
5. Serve:
Serve the Swiss Mushroom Burgers hot with your favorite side dishes like fries, chips, or a salad. 🍟🥗
Enjoy your delicious Swiss Mushroom Burger! 😋🍔🍄
