Sirloin Portobello And Pate Burger Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat grill pan or large nonstick skillet
• Saute onions in a small pan over moderate heat for 3 to 5 minutes until tender. Combine meat with Worcestershire sauce, Sauteed onion and steak seasoning blend or salt and pepper. Form 4 large patties. Drizzle patties with a touch of extra-virgin olive oil. Quick toast your split rolls, then add burgers to grill pan or skillet. Grill or pan-fry burgers 4 to 5 minutes on each side for medium well doneness.
• Heat a small to medium nonstick skillet over medium high heat. Add a little oil and mushrooms. Season mushrooms with a little salt and pepper and saute until just tender, about 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat.
• Pile mushrooms on top of burgers just before you are ready to take them off the grill or out of the pan. Fold each Swiss cheese slice in half and rest on top of mushrooms. Place a loose tin foil tent over the burgers and turn heat off under pan or grill. Allow the cheese to begin to melt down over mushroom and burgers, about 2 to 3 minutes.
• Combine balsamic, mayonnaise and coarse cracked black pepper in a small dish.
• To assemble, place burgers with mushrooms and Swiss cheese on bun bottom. Slather tops of buns with Balsamic black pepper mayonnaise and baby spinach. Set burger tops in place and serve with sliced vine ripe tomatoes, drizzled with oil, seasoned with salt and pepper and garnished with scallions. Pile onion rings and a dollop of dipping sauce along side. For drinks, try black and white frozen shakes -- yum!

Steps:

• Combine marinade ingredients. Place caps into a baking dish and pour marinade over top. Use a brush to make sure all caps are covered with the marinade. Set aside and let marinate up to 2 hours.
• Remove the portobellos from marinade (do not discard marinade) and place gill side down on a preheated gas, electric or charcoal grill over medium-high heat. Grill 3 to 4 minutes per side. Top each cap with cheese 2 minutes to melt before they are finished grilling.
• In a medium bowl combine 1/2 cup mayonnaise and 2 tablespoons of the marinade.
• Spread the flavored mayonnaise onto each bun and top with portobellos. Serve with sliced onion, lettuce and tomato.

Steps:

• Pulse the mushrooms in a food processor until finely chopped. Transfer to a medium bowl; add the beef, garlic, soy sauce, 1/4 teaspoon salt and a few grinds of pepper and mix with your hands until combined. Form into four 1/2-inch-thick patties.
• Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the patties, season with salt and cook until browned, about 3 minutes per side for medium rare. Top each burger with a slice of Swiss cheese, cover and cook until the cheese melts, about 1 more minute. Remove from the heat and uncover.
• Meanwhile, put the edamame in a microwave-safe bowl; cover with plastic wrap and pierce a few times with a knife to vent. Microwave until the edamame is bright green and tender, about 5 minutes. Uncover and toss with the remaining 2 teaspoons vegetable oil; season with salt.
• Toast the English muffins, then sandwich with the burgers and toppings. Serve with the edamame.

Steps:

• Put the olive oil and balsamic vinegar in a pitcher. Add the basil, parsley, thyme, salt and pepper and whisk together. Pour the mixture into a resealable plastic bag. Add the mushrooms, seal the bag and toss around to coat. Grill immediately, or leave the mushrooms in the marinade for up to 2 hours.
• When ready to cook, heat a grill or grill pan to medium high. Cook the mushrooms until lightly charred and tender, 4 to 5 minutes per side. Toast the buns cut-side down until golden, a couple of minutes.
• Serve the mushrooms in the buns with sliced tomato, red onion, butter lettuce, mustard, mayonnaise and ketchup.
