Little Italy Burger
- 1 pound ground beef
- 8 slices pancetta
- 1 jar pesto good
- 1 smoked mozzarella large ball
- 1 red onion cut into thin rounds
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 2 teaspoons tomato paste
- 1 teaspoon anchovy paste
- baby arugula
- tomato slices Ripe
- 4 ciabatta buns
- Heat the grill to high. Divide the ground beef into 4 portions. Salt and pepper and press into patties. Layer each patty with a slice of pancetta on top and bottom. Press the pancetta into the patty.
- Cut the onion and mozzarella into rounds.
- Melt the butter and mix it with the tomato paste and anchovy paste.
- Cut the ciabatta buns and brush the insides with tomato-butter.
- CAREFULLY brush the grill with oil or use non-stick grill spray. Grill the patties and onions at the same time. Grill the patties for 3-5 minutes per side and the onions for 1-2 minutes per side.
- Once you flip the burgers, lay the onion rounds over the top of each patty, followed by the mozzarella slices. The cheese will melt while the burgers finish cooking.
- Place the buns on the open grill and toast for 1 minute.
- Once the buns are toasted, slather them with pesto. Layer arugula leaves, tomato slices and a patty on each bun. Top and serve! Serves 4.
