Wild Mushroom Burgers
Ingredients
2 tablespoons butter
8 ounces sliced wild mushrooms
1 small onion, sliced
1 clove garlic, minced
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
Salt and pepper to taste
Burger Patties
Swiss cheese
hamburger buns (brioche or potato buns recommended)
Optional toppings: lettuce, tomato, mayonnaise, mustard
Instructions
Prepare the mushroom topping: Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add the mushrooms and onions. Sauté until tender and lightly browned, about 8-10 minutes. Stir in the garlic and Worcestershire and cook for 1 more minute. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Set aside and keep warm.
Cook the burgers: Heat a cast iron skillet or grill over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for 3-5 minutes per side. During the last minute of cooking, top each patty with a slice of Swiss cheese and cover to melt.
Toast the buns: Brush the cut sides of the buns lightly with butter or oil. Toast cut-side down in a skillet or on the grill until lightly browned.
Assemble the burgers: Place the patties on the bottom buns. Top generously with the sautéed mushrooms and onions. Add any other desired toppings. Cover with the top bun.
Serve the mushroom Swiss burgers immediately while hot. Enjoy!
