Swiss Mushroom Burgers
Hearty Meat Dishes
Prep time:
15 minutesGrill time:
8-13 minutes“Hearty, homemade burgers topped with melted Swiss cheese and mushrooms are a lunchtime taste sensation.”
Ingredients
Serves 4
- 1 lb. ground beef
- 2 tbsp. minced onion
- 1 tsp. dried oregano
- 1 tsp. dried sage
- 1/4 tsp. salt, divided
- 1/4 tsp. black pepper, divided
- 5 oz. cremini mushrooms, sliced
- 1/2 cup beef broth
- 1 tbsp. soy sauce
- 1 tsp. cornstarch
- 4 thin slices Swiss cheese
- 4 hamburger buns
- 4 lettuce leaves
Directions
1
Preheat grill or broiler to high heat. If using a broiler, line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Combine the beef, onion, oregano, sage and 1/8 tsp. each salt and pepper in a large bowl.
2
Shape the beef mixture into four 4-inch burgers. Grill, turning once, until medium doneness, 7–8 minutes, or until well-done, 10–12 minutes.
3
Meanwhile, place the mushrooms, broth and soy sauce in a medium saucepan. Simmer for 2 minutes. Combine the cornstarch and 1/2 tsp. cold water to form a paste. Stir the cornstarch mixture into the pot and cook until thickened, about 1 minute. Add the remaining salt and pepper.
4
Place a slice of Swiss on each burger. Grill until the cheese is melted, about 1 minute longer. Split the hamburger buns and place a lettuce leaf on each bottom. Add a burger and spoon the mushroom sauce on top. Place the top of the buns on the burgers and serve immediately.

Grandma's Secret Tip
Adding a little cornstarch is an easy way to thicken sauces and gravies. It should be mixed with a little water first or it will form lumps.
