Equipment
- Grill and Stovetop
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef I used 85/15
- 1 teaspoons garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 8 ounces sliced cremini mushrooms or mushrooms of your choice
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 large yellow onion thinly sliced
- sea salt and pepper to taste
- 4 slices Swiss cheese or double up with 2 slices per burger
- 4 hamburger buns
- 1 tablespoon olive oil for grilling the buns
Instructions
- Remove ground beef from the refrigerator and set on the counter to warm up a bit.
- Preheat grill to HIGH.
- Heat a large non-stick skillet over HIGH heat. Add the sliced mushrooms and cook until softened and they release their moisture.
- Add the olive oil and sliced onions to the skillet, toss to combine.
- Stir and cook until the onions until the onions soften and begin to brown. I let mine cook for about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
- Divide the ground beef into 3 or 4 sections and form into round patties with a slight indentation in the center.
- Sprinkle both sides with garlic pepper mixture.
- Place on the grill and cook until they reach desired doneness, about 5 to 8 minutes per side.
- Time will vary based on patty thickness and how hot your grill is.
- When burgers are almost cooked through, add the cheese slices. Allow cheese to melt then remove the burgers from the grill. Set aside and keep warm
- Brush or spray the sliced burger buns with olive oil and toast on the hot grill.
- To assemble Mushroom Swiss Burgers:
- Spread Garlic Aioli on the bottom bun, or condiment of your choice.
- Top with a cheese burger patty, then the caramelized mushrooms and onions.
- Finish with top bun and serve with lettuce leaves and sliced tomatoes.
Notes
- I used Cremini mushrooms, but shitake or button would work as well.
- If you have a burner on your grill, you could make the mushrooms and onions outside at the same time that you are grilling your burgers.
- Don’t like Swiss cheese? Substitute your favorite cheese.
