Our spin on a classic patty melt might just reinvigorate everything you thought you knew about this classic melted sandwich and burger hybrid. With your choice of meaty insides, use Sargento® Sliced Medium Cheddar Cheese to take all of the flavors to the next level and make lunch time interesting.
Ingredients
- 2 tsp. butter or margarine
- 1 large onion, thinly sliced
- 1 lb. ground turkey or lean ground beef
- Salt and pepper (optional)
- 8 slices Sargento® Sliced Medium Cheddar Cheese
- 8 slices rye or pumpernickel bread
- Butter flavor cooking spray
Directions
- Melt butter in large skillet over medium heat. Separate onion slices into rings; add to skillet. Cook uncovered 10 minutes or until golden brown and tender, stirring occasionally.
- Form ground meat into four 1/2-inch thick patties. Season with salt and pepper, if desired. Cook in large nonstick skillet or ridged grill pan over medium heat 6 minutes per side or until no longer pink in center.
- For each sandwich, lay slice cheese on bread; top with patty, onion, cheese and bread. Coat large skillet with cooking spray. Cook each sandwich over medium-low heat 4 minutes per side or until golden brown and cheese is melted.
