Instructions
Garlic Aioli
- 1In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Stir until well combined. Cover and refrigerate for at least 15 minutes to allow flavors to meld.
Mushroom Preparation
- 1Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add sliced mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and browned, about 5-7 minutes. Season lightly with salt and pepper. Remove from skillet and set aside.
Burger Patties
- 1Gently form the ground beef into four equal patties, about 1/2 inch thick and slightly wider than the buns. Season both sides of the patties with onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
- 2Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Place the patties on the grill and cook for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or until desired doneness is reached.
- 3During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of Swiss cheese on top of each burger patty and cover loosely with foil or a lid to melt the cheese.
Assembly
- 1Lightly toast the brioche buns on the grill or in a toaster.
- 2Spread a generous amount of garlic aioli on both halves of each toasted bun.
- 3Place a cheese-topped burger patty on the bottom bun. Top with a spoonful of the sautéed mushrooms, then crown with the top bun.
- 4Serve immediately and enjoy your Swiss Mushroom Burger with Garlic Aioli.
