{Swiss Burger}

Happy Weekend! 
Swiss Burger
I made a few changes to this recipe based on our family's tastes. The result? Yum!  
{adapted from Cook This, Not That's A.1. Swiss Burger}

What You'll Need:
1/2 T canola oil, plus more for the burgers
1 medium yellow onion sliced
2 cups sliced baby bella mushrooms
1 1/2 T Worcestershire sauce
1 T brown sugar
salt and pepper to taste
1 lb ground sirloin or ground turkey
4 slices swiss cheese
4 keiser rolls, slit and lightly toasted

Heat oil in a large skillet or saute pan over medium-low heat. Add the onion and cook for 3 to 4 minutes, until soft and translucent. Ad the mushrooms, Worcestershire sauce, and brown sugar, and cook for 6 to 7 minutes, until the mushrooms and onions are browned and caramelized. Season with salt and pepper and remove from the heat.
Heat a light film of oil in a large cast iron skillet over medium high heat. Form the sirloin into four loosely packed into 4 evenly sized balls {not patties} being careful not to overwork the meat. Season all over with salt and a bit of black pepper. Add to the pan and cook for a minute or two, then pace a spatula on top of each patty and pres down to flatten the meat into a burger about 1/3" thick. Cook for about 2 minutes, until a nice crust develops. Flip, using the spatula to scrape the burger free if necessary. Top with cheese and cook for 2 to 3 minutes more, until the meat is coked through. Place the burgers on the toasted buns, then top with the mushrooms and onions.
