Dinner Tonight: Patty Melt Recipe
- 8 ounces ground beef
- 1 small onion, thinly sliced
- 4 slices rye bread
- 4 slices Swiss cheese
- 2 tablespoons Canola oil
- 2 tablespoons butter, room temperature
- Salt and black pepper
- Divide the meat into two balls. Form each one into a 1/4-inch patty that is just slightly larger than the slices of bread. Season each patty generously with salt and pepper.
- Pour 1 tablespoon of the oil into a small skillet set over medium-high heat. Add the onions and cook until browned, about 10 minutes or so. Set aside.
- Top two of the slices of bread each with some onions, a slice of cheese, cooked patty, another slice of cheese and finally a slice of bread. Slather each sandwich on top and bottom with the butter.
- Wipe out the skillet. Then turn the heat to medium. Add the sandwiches. Cook for 2 to 3 minutes a side, or until the bread is golden browned and the cheese has melted.Slice in half diagonally and serve.
