Hamburger Wellington image

This is based on a recipe from George Foreman's book, Indoor Grilling Made Easy. His intro says, "These are more like hamburger panini, so the burgers are meant to be on the thinner side." I made mine on the George Foreman grill (somehow I've managed to collect about 3 of them in various sizes!); however, any panini maker would work, too. You can also adapt these for a flat griddle, preferably a grooved one, keeping in mind that where the instructions say "grill" you'll need to grill both sides of the patties and the sandwiches, adjusting cooking times accordingly.

Time 20m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

8 slices white bread
2 tablespoons butter, softened
4 slices swiss cheese (about 4 ounces)
1 cup Baby Spinach
1 lb lean ground beef
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat the grill to high.
  • Place bread slices on a clean work surface. Lightly butter one side and turn them over. Place cheese on 4 slices and cover the cheese with the spinach.
  • Make four thin patties with the ground beef. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
  • Grill the patties, in batches if necessary depending on the size of your grill, for about 3 minutes for medium-rare, or slightly longer for more well done.
  • While maintaining the high heat on the grill, place the burgers on top of the spinach, and cover with the remaining bread slices, buttered side facing up.
  • Grill the sandwiches until the cheese melts and the bread is golden brown, 30 seconds to 1 minute.
  • Serve immediately -- on the good china.
