Step-by-Step Preparation
1. Prepare the Patties
Season your ground beef with salt, pepper, and a splash of Worcestershire sauce. Form into thin, evenly sized patties that fit the size of your bread.
2. Sauté the Mushrooms and Onions
In a hot skillet, heat olive oil and cook the onions until soft and caramelized. Add the mushrooms and cook until they release their moisture and brown beautifully. Season with salt and pepper.
3. Cook the Patties
Using the same skillet, cook your beef patties over medium-high heat until they develop a nice crust and reach your desired doneness.
4. Assemble the Patty Melt
On a slice of rye bread, layer Swiss cheese, a cooked patty, sautéed mushrooms, caramelized onions, and another slice of Swiss cheese. Top with the second slice of bread.
5. Toast to Perfection
Butter the outside of the sandwich and grill it in a skillet over medium heat until the bread is golden and crisp, and the cheese has melted.
Serving Suggestions
Serve your Ultimate Mushroom Swiss Patty Melt hot with a side of crispy fries, tangy pickles, or a fresh green salad. For an extra indulgent touch, add a dollop of Dijon mustard or a smear of garlic aioli inside the sandwich.
