Patty Melt Recipe
Ingredients:
For the Patties:
- 1 pound ground beef
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
For the Caramelized Onions:
- 2 large onions, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon sugar (optional, to help with caramelization)
For the Sandwich:
- 8 slices rye bread
- 8 slices Swiss cheese
- 4 tablespoons butter (for grilling the sandwiches)
Instructions:
- Prepare the Patties:
- In a bowl, mix the ground beef, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape them into thin patties roughly the size of the bread slices.
- Cook the patties in a skillet over medium-high heat for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are cooked to your desired level of doneness. Remove from the skillet and set aside.
- Caramelize the Onions:
- In the same skillet, add the butter and olive oil over medium heat.
- Add the sliced onions and salt. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onions are golden brown and caramelized, about 20-25 minutes. If desired, add the sugar to help with the caramelization process.
- Remove from heat and set aside.
- Assemble the Sandwiches:
- Butter one side of each slice of rye bread.
- On the non-buttered side of 4 slices, place a slice of Swiss cheese, followed by a cooked beef patty, a generous portion of caramelized onions, and another slice of Swiss cheese. Top with the remaining slices of bread, buttered side facing out.
- Grill the Sandwiches:
- Heat a skillet or griddle over medium heat.
- Place the assembled sandwiches on the skillet and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the bread is golden brown and crispy, and the cheese is melted.
- Serve:
- Remove the sandwiches from the skillet and let them cool slightly before slicing in half.
- Serve warm with your favorite side of chips or pickles.
Enjoy your delicious homemade patty melt with its juicy beef patties, melty cheese, and sweet caramelized onions!
