Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions for Mushroom Swiss Burger
  1. Begin by shaping the ground beef into 4 equally sized patties, making a small indentation in the center of each. Season both sides generously with salt and pepper.
  2. In a skillet, melt 1 tablespoon of butter or heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add sliced mushrooms and sauté for about 5–7 minutes until they are golden brown and tender.
  3. Heat a grill or frying pan over medium-high heat and place your seasoned patties on it. Cook for approximately 4–5 minutes per side until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).
  4. During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of Swiss cheese on top of each burger patty. Cover the skillet or close the grill lid to help the cheese melt.
  5. While the patties are finishing up, toast the brioche buns for about 1-2 minutes until they are golden brown.
  6. Now it's time to assemble your Mushroom Swiss Burger! Start with the bottom half of the toasted bun, layering on fresh lettuce, the cheesy beef patty, sautéed mushrooms, caramelized onions, and slices of tomato and pickle.
