Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground beef (80% lean)
- 4 slices sharp cheddar cheese
- 1 medium red onion
- 1 cup button mushrooms
- 1 garlic clove
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 hamburger buns
- 1 cup arugula or spinach leaves
- 1 large tomato
- 4 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
Instructions
Thinly slice the red onion and mushrooms. Mince the garlic clove. Dice the fresh parsley.
Heat the olive oil and butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced onion, mushrooms, and garlic. Sauté for 7–10 minutes until softened and slightly caramelized. Set aside.
In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, parsley, salt, and black pepper. Gently mix until just combined. Divide the mixture into four equal portions and shape them into burger patties about 1 inch thick.
Preheat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the burger patties for 4–5 minutes on one side, then flip. Add a slice of sharp cheddar cheese to each patty and cook for an additional 4–5 minutes, or until the burgers reach your desired level of doneness.
Slice the tomato into thin rounds. Toast the hamburger buns lightly on the grill or in a toaster.
Spread 1 tablespoon of mayonnaise and 1/2 teaspoon of Dijon mustard on the bottom half of each bun. Top with a handful of arugula or spinach leaves, a slice of tomato, and the sautéed onion and mushroom mixture.
Place the cooked burger patties with melted cheddar on top of the vegetables and cover with the top half of the bun.
Serve immediately and enjoy your Farmer in the Dell Burgers!
