How to Make Italian Burgers With Salami Mozzarella

  1. In a large bowl, gently combine 1 lb ground beef, 1/4 cup chopped fresh basil, 2 cloves minced garlic, 1 teaspoon dried oregano, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  2. Divide the meat mixture into 4 equal portions and form into patties about 3/4 inch thick.
  3. Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for 4-5 minutes per side, or until cooked to your desired doneness.
  4. While the patties are cooking, thinly slice 4 ounces salami and place it in a separate skillet over medium heat. Cook until crispy, about 3-5 minutes.
  5. Toast your favorite burger buns.
  6. Assemble the burgers: Spread your favorite sauce (pesto, marinara, or aioli) on the bottom bun, add a cooked patty, top with 1-2 slices of crispy salami, 1-2 slices fresh mozzarella, and any additional desired toppings (lettuce, tomato, onion).
  7. Place the top bun on and serve immediately.
