These saucy, family-friendly burgers might be best eaten with a knife and fork. If you'd like to go bunless, serve over spaghetti with extra sauce. We enjoyed these with a side of macaroni salad. Ingredients:
6 (1.5-ounce) frozen ciabatta rolls with rosemary and olive oil |
8 ounces sweet turkey italian sausage |
1 tablespoon chopped fresh basil |
2 teaspoons chopped fresh oregano |
1/2 teaspoon fennel seeds, crushed |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder |
1 pound ground sirloin |
cooking spray |
1/2 cup (2 ounces) shredded sharp provolone cheese |
6 large basil leaves |
6 tablespoons lower-sodium marinara sauce |
Directions:
1. Preheat grill to medium-high heat. 2. Bake rolls according to package directions. Split rolls. 3. Remove casings from sausage. Combine sausage, chopped basil, and next 5 ingredients (through ground sirloin) in a medium bowl. Divide beef mixture into 6 equal portions with moist hands, shaping each into a 1/2-inch-thick patty. Press thumb in center of each patty, leaving a nickel-sized indentation. 4. Place patties on grill rack coated with cooking spray; grill 6 minutes. Turn patties over; grill 2 minutes. Sprinkle cheese evenly over patties, and grill 6 minutes or until a thermometer registers 160°. Remove from grill; let stand 5 minutes. 5. Place 1 basil leaf on bottom half of each roll; top each with 1 patty, 1 tablespoon marinara sauce, and roll top. |
