Jumbo Chicken, Spinach, And Herb Burgers

• 1 (10 ounce) box frozen chopped spinach, defrosted
• 2 lbs ground chicken
• 1 shallot, finely chopped
• 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
• 10 basil leaves, shredded (or torn)
• 3 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
• salt
• fresh ground black pepper
• 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
• 20 white button mushrooms, thinly sliced
• 2 garlic cloves, minced
• 1/2 cup dry white wine
• 4 slices swiss cheese
• 4 kaiser rolls or 4 sandwich-size sourdough english muffins, split and toasted
• 4 leaves red leaf lettuce
• 1 vine-ripe tomatoes, thinly sliced

1. Preheat a large nonstick skillet over med-high heat.
2. Arrange the defrosted chopped spinach in the center of a kitchen towel; wrap the towel around the spinach and squeeze out the excess liquid.
3. Put the spinach in a bowl and combine with chicken, shallots, 2 tablespoons dijon mustard, basil, parsley, salt, and pepper.
4. Divide meat into 4 equal portions; make 4 large patties, 3/4 to 1-inch thick.
5. Drizzle patties with oil and place them in the hot skillet.
6. Cook 6-7 minutes on each side until chicken is cooked through.
7. Preheat a second medium-size skillet over med-high heat with 2 tablespoons olive oil.
8. Add in the sliced mushrooms and garlic; cook, stirring occasionally, for 4-5 minutes, or until the mushrooms are nice and brown.
9. Season with salt and pepper; add in the wine and cook until the pan is almost dry, about 2 minutes.
10. Top the burgers with the mushroom topping and the swiss cheese (fold each slice of cheese in half to fit the burger, if needed).
11. Cover loosely with foil; turn off the pan and let the cheese melt about 2 minutes.
12. Slather the tops of the buns with mustard; place the burgers on the bun bottoms and top with lettuce and tomato.
13. Put the bun tops in place; serve.
