Recipes for "patty melt"

Arrange onion slices on a plate and drizzle vinegar over top. Divide beef into 4 equal portions, shaping each into a 1/2-inch thick patty. Season patties with salt and pepper.

Heat a large grill pan over medium heat. Coat the pan with cooking spray and add onion. Cover and cook for 6 minutes, flipping halfway. Remove from pan, cover, and keep warm.

Heat the grill pan over medium-high heat. Coat with more cooking spray and add patties. Cook until no longer pink in the centers, about 3 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (71 degrees C). Remove patties to a plate, drain and discard any grease, and wipe the pan clean with a paper towel.

Spread Dijon-mayonnaise blend evenly over all bread slices. Layer 4 of the slices with 2 tablespoons Jarlsberg cheese, 1 beef patty, 2 onion slices, and 2 tablespoons Jarlsberg. Place remaining bread slices mustard-side down on top of the sandwiches.

Heat the grill pan over medium heat and coat with cooking spray. Add sandwiches to the pan and place a cast iron or other heavy skillet on top, pressing gently to flatten sandwiches. Cook until bread is toasted, about 3 minutes per side, leaving the skillet on top as they cook.

Cut off the ends of the onion and peel back the skin. Slice it lengthwise from root to end. Then thinly slice each of the halves so that you have half moons. Use your hands to break them up. Finely dice 1 tablespoon of the onion for the sauce and set it aside.

Add the oil to a large skillet over medium heat. Once it is shimmering, add the onions and stir to coat them in oil. Cook them until they are translucent and golden brown, stirring frequently to keep them from burning, about 15 minutes. (If needed, adjust the heat so that they don’t brown too much.) Add the apple cider vinegar in the last minute and stir to deglaze the pan.

Remove the onions from the heat and set aside. Leave the pan to cool.

Wipe out the pan you used to cook the onions.

Using your hands, flatten the patties a little and shape them to fit your bread.

For a mustard-grilled patty, spread a dollop of Dijon mustard on one side of the patty before placing it mustard-side down in the pan to cook.

Cook the patties according to the package instructions. You can shorten the cook time by 1 minute on the second side since the patties are thinner; it’s okay if they are a little pink in the center. Remove the patties and let the pan cool a bit before wiping it out.

Place a slice of vegan cheese on each piece of rye bread.

Vegan cheese takes a bit longer to melt. To ensure it gets nice and gooey in the pan, microwave the bread and cheese before cooking on the stovetop, just until the cheese is no longer cold and stiff, 10 to 15 seconds.

Place the pan over medium heat and add the butter. Once it melts, add the pieces of bread cheese side up. Lower the heat to medium-low, cover, and cook until the cheese starts to melt, about 5 minutes.

Remove the cover and assemble your sandwiches. On 2 slices of bread, stack 1/4 cup caramelized onions, one tablespoon of Thousand Island sauce, the cooked patty, and a few pickle slices (if using). Place the remaining 2 pieces of bread on top.

Turn the heat up to medium and use a spatula to press down your patty melt and let it cook for a few more minutes, or until the cheese fully melts and the bread is toasty but not burnt.

Remove the sandwiches from the pan and cut them in half. Serve with more vegan Thousand Island dressing.

You can store extra dressing or caramelized onions in a sealed container in the fridge for up to 5 days.

Season ground beef with salt and pepper; divide into 3 equal-sized balls. Shape each ball as close as possible to the shape of the bread. Make an indentation in the center of each patty with your thumb to help keep them flat while cooking.

Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add onion; cook and stir until soft and translucent, 5 to 7 minutes. Transfer onions into a bowl and set aside. Place beef patties into the same skillet and cook until desired doneness, 3 to 5 minutes per side.

Meanwhile, spread 1 teaspoon of mayonnaise on one side of each slice of bread.

Place 3 slices bread mayonnaise-side down in the skillet. Top each with 1 slice of cheese, 1 beef patty, 1/3 of the onions, a second slice of cheese, and another slice of bread, mayonnaise-side up. Cook bread until golden brown and cheese has started to melt, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip each sandwich over and cook an additional 3 to 4 minutes.

Remove tender, leafy parts of kale and mustard greens from the stems and place into a large bowl. Cover with cold water and wash greens, allowing dirt to sink to the bottom. Transfer greens to a colander or strainer to drain thoroughly.

Bring a large pot of generously salted water to a rolling boil over high heat. Add drained kale and mustard greens, using a spatula to submerge them. Return to a boil; cook until barely tender and not soft, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl and let cool until easily handled.

Meanwhile, heat 3 tablespoons butter in a large pan over medium heat. Sauté green onions, garlic, and salt until onions soften and turn translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in black pepper and cayenne.

Squeeze water from cooled greens and chop. Add greens to green onion mixture in the pan; continue to cook and stir until just heated through, 2 to 3 minutes. Taste and adjust for seasoning. Remove from heat and stir rice vinegar into braised greens.

Heat about 2 tablespoons butter in a large pan over medium-low heat. Add 2 French bread slices to hot butter in the pan; place 1/4 of the Irish Cheddar cheese on top. Place about 1/2 cup braised greens on 1 French bread slice, then top with remaining bread slice, cheese side-down. Cook, flipping as needed, until surface is golden brown and crisp, cheese is melted, and greens are heated through, 2 to 3 minutes. Remove sandwiches to a cutting board. Repeat with remaining butter, bread, greens, and cheese.

Slice sandwiches in half at a slight angle and serve.

Heat butter and oil in a Dutch oven. Add onions, season with salt and pepper, cook, stirring continually, for 3 minutes. Cover with a lid and allow onions to caramelize, stirring occasionally to prevent burning, about 20 minutes.

Meanwhile, combine ground beef, garlic salt, and pepper in a bowl and mix thoroughly. Shape ground beef into 4 rectangular patties.

Cook patties in a skillet over medium-high heat, flipping once, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Add a slice of Swiss cheese to each patty and top each with an equal amount of caramelized onions.

Set an oven rack about 6 inches from the heat source and preheat the oven's broiler.

Spread 1 teaspoon butter over each slice of bread. Broil until lightly golden and toasted. Assemble patty melts and serve immediately.

Cover 1 side of each bread slice thoroughly and generously with butter; set aside.

Mix ground beef, pepper, salt, and onion powder together in a bowl until thoroughly combined, but do not overmix or meat will not have the proper consistency after it is cooked. Form 3 patties to fit the shape of the bread.

Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add patties and cook for 2 to 3 minutes. Flip, making sure patties do not break, and cook for another 2 to 3 minutes. Reduce heat to low, and cook until no longer pink in the centers, about 5 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).

While the burgers are cooking, combine mayonnaise, ketchup, bacon bits, relish, and sugar for sauce in a small bowl. Stir until mayonnaise and ketchup are well binded.

Heat another large skillet over medium-low heat. Place 1 slice bread in the skillet, buttered-side down. Top with 2 slices Cheddar cheese, a cooked patty, and 2 slices provolone cheese. Spread a thin layer of sauce on the unbuttered side of a second slice of bread, and place sauce-side down on top of provolone. Repeat to make remaining patty melts, working in batches if necessary.

Cook until bread is lightly toasted and cheese is melted, 2 to 3 minutes per side.

Mix sirloin, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, salt, and pepper together by hand in a medium bowl. Form into 4 hamburger patties and wrap in plastic wrap. Place in the refrigerator until flavors have melded, 4 hours to overnight.

Heat butter and olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat until melted. Add onions and saute until they begin to caramelize, about 15 minutes, reducing heat to medium-low if they seem to be sizzling too much.

Spray a large skillet with cooking spray and heat over medium heat. Place hamburger patties in the skillet and cook for 3 minutes per side, topping each patty with a slice of Cheddar cheese after flipping.

Place patties on toasted rye bread. Top with warm onions, Dijon mustard, and remaining bread.

Combine ground beef, parsley, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, and steak seasoning in a bowl; mix until thoroughly combined. Form into three equal patties.

Heat a nonstick griddle over medium heat. Place burgers onto the warm griddle and cook to desired doneness, 4 to 6 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (71 degrees C). Remove burgers and set aside.

Warm a second griddle over medium heat. Butter one side of each bread slice. Place 1/2 of the bread onto the griddle, buttered-side down. Add a slice of cheese, a burger, and a second slice of cheese to each one, then top with the remaining bread, buttered-side up.

Cook until bread is golden brown and cheese is melted, 6 to 10 minutes, flipping halfway through.

Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat and lightly oil the grate.

Pat out three 1/3-pound hamburger patties, pressing each patty down with your index and middle fingers to get a nice, flat burger instead of a ball. Season patties on both sides with salt and pepper.

Cook on the preheated grill until no longer pink in the centers, 10 to 12 minutes, flipping halfway. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 160 degrees F (70 degrees C).

Meanwhile, melt butter in a saucepan over low heat. Increase heat to medium-low, add onion, and saute until tender, 5 to 7 minutes.

Place 3 slices of bread on the grill. Top each with a slice of American cheese, a cooked patty, sauteed onions, a slice of Swiss cheese, and the remaining bread. Grill sandwiches until cheese melts, about 1 minute per side.

In a large cast-iron skillet set over medium to medium heat, add 1 tablespoon of butter and sliced onions. Cook onions, stirring occasionally, for about 25 minutes until they are a deep brown color. If the onions are burning on spots, you might need to turn your heat down to medium-low.

Near the end of cooking (about 5 minutes), add apple cider vinegar and stir to combine. Then remove from the skillet.

Shape ground beef into two thin 4-ounce patties that are roughly the shape of your bread. Season patties with salt and pepper.

When onions are done in your skillet, set the heat to medium-high and add the patties. Cook for 3 minutes per side. If your patties are thin, that should be enough time to cook them through. Remove patties when done.

Wipe your skillet clean and add the last tablespoon of butter to the skillet. Once the butter melts, add all the bread slices to the skillet, so one side of each slice is coated with butter. Remove two of the four pieces of bread and start building your sandwich on the two pieces remaining in the skillet (you can also do this one at a time depending on the size of your skillet).

On each slice of bread remaining in the skillet, add a slice of Swiss cheese, a patty, half of the caramelized onions, and top with the second slice of Swiss cheese. Top each sandwich with the slice of bread removed from the skillet earlier, buttered side up.

Over medium-low heat, cook the sandwiches for 3 to 4 minutes per side until the bread is toasted and the cheese is melted.

Slice sandwiches in half and serve immediately while warm.
