Ingredients
- ½ cup mayonnaise
- ½ cup sour cream
- 2 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tsp. Dijon mustard
- 1 tsp. paprika
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- Salt
- Pepper
- 1 lb. 85% lean ground beef
- 1 Tbsp. oil
- 3 Tbsp. butter, divided
- 8 oz. cremini mushrooms, sliced
- 1 yellow onion, sliced
- 4 Kaiser rolls
- Several leaves of lettuce, for serving
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, mix together the mayonnaise, sour cream, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon, paprika, and garlic. Season lightly with salt and pepper. Set aside.
- In a large bowl, season the beef with 1 teaspoon of salt and 1/4 teaspoon of pepper. Mix to combine but do not overmix.
- Divide the beef into 4 portions. Shape each into a tight ball, then flatten the ball into a disc. Pinch to make the burger slightly thinner in the center than it is around the edges. Set aside.
- Heat the oil and 1 tablespoon of the butter in a medium skillet over medium heat. Add the mushrooms and onions. Cook, stirring occasionally, until softened, 5-8 minutes. Season lightly with salt and pepper. Stir. Remove from heat but leave them in the skillet.
- Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the burgers and cook on the first side until deeply seared, 3-4 minutes. Flip and cook on the second side until cooked to an internal temperature of 160F, about 4-6 minutes more.
- Transfer the burgers to a plate to rest.
- Put the skillet of mushrooms back over low heat, just to heat through.
- Cut the Kaiser rolls in half. Return the large skillet to the stove and melt the remaining 2 tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Place the rolls in the pan cut-size down, and toast for about 1 minute. Remove the from pan.
- To assemble the burgers, slather the cut sides of each bun with the mayonnaise mixture. Arrange a piece of lettuce on the bottom buns and top with cooked burger patties. Pile high with mushroom and onions and cover with the top half of the burger bun.
