Ingredients

• 1 pound ground beef (80% lean)
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
• 1 cup baby bella mushrooms, sliced
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 0.5 cup pizza sauce
• 1 cup mozzarella cheese, shredded
• 0.25 cup parmesan cheese, grated
• 4 pieces brioche burger buns
• 2 tablespoons butter (optional, for toasting buns)
• 4 pieces fresh basil leaves (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat a large skillet or grill over medium heat.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and Italian seasoning. Mix until evenly incorporated, but do not overwork the meat.

Step 3

Divide the seasoned meat into 4 equal portions and shape into burger patties, slightly larger than the diameter of your buns to account for shrinkage during cooking.

Step 4

Heat the olive oil in a separate skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced mushrooms and sauté for 5-7 minutes, or until the mushrooms are tender and slightly golden. Set aside.

Step 5

Cook the burger patties on the preheated skillet or grill for 4-5 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C) for medium doneness.

Step 6

Top each burger patty with a spoonful of pizza sauce, a generous sprinkling of mozzarella cheese, and a small handful of parmesan cheese. Cover the skillet or grill for 2-3 minutes to let the cheese melt.

Step 7

Meanwhile, optional: Lightly butter the insides of the brioche buns and toast on a skillet or grill until golden brown.

Step 8

Assemble the Mushroom Pizza Burgers: Place the burger patties on the bottom buns, top with sautéed mushrooms, and add fresh basil leaves if desired. Close with the top bun.

Step 9

Serve immediately with your favorite sides, such as fries or a simple salad. Enjoy!
