Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams Ground beef
- 100 grams Italian breadcrumbs
- 50 grams Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 large Egg
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon Dried basil
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 6 slices Mozzarella cheese, sliced
- 6 pieces Ciabatta rolls
- 300 milliliters Marinara sauce
- 12 leaves Fresh basil leaves
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine ground beef, Italian breadcrumbs, Parmesan cheese, egg, minced garlic, dried oregano, dried basil, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
Divide the mixture into 6 equal portions and shape each portion into a patty, about the size of your ciabatta rolls.
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, cook the patties for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and browned.
While the patties cook, warm the marinara sauce in a small saucepan over low heat.
Slice the ciabatta rolls in half horizontally and lightly toast them, if desired.
Once the patties are cooked, place a slice of mozzarella cheese on top of each patty while still in the skillet. Cover the skillet for 1-2 minutes to allow the cheese to melt.
To assemble the sandwiches, spread a spoonful of warm marinara sauce on the bottom half of each ciabatta roll. Place a cheesy patty on top, then add two fresh basil leaves. Spread more marinara sauce on the top half of the roll, and place it on the sandwich.
Serve the Italian Pattie Sandwiches warm with a side of extra marinara sauce for dipping, if desired.
