Mushroom Swiss Burger with Jalapeno Aioli

2 teaspoon steak seasoning blend

1 Tablespoon olive oil

5 ounces portobello mushrooms

4 Swiss cheese slices

4 hamburger buns, split

4 lettuce leaves

4 tomatoes slices

2 jalapeno peppers

1/2 cup light mayonnaise

1/4 teaspoon kosher salt

1 teaspoon fresh lime juice

2. Heat sauté pan over medium until hot. Add olive oil and mushrooms, Cook over medium heat for 4 to 5 minutes stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and set aside.

3. Place patties on grid over medium, ash-covered coals. Grill, covered, 8 to 10 minutes (over medium heat on preheated gas grill, 7 to 9 minutes) until instantread thermometer inserted horizontally into center registers 160°F, turning occasionally. About 2 minutes before burgers are done, place buns, cut sides down, on grid. Grill until lightly toasted. During last minute of grilling, top each burger with cheese slice.

Cook’s Tip: Cooking times are for fresh or thoroughly thawed ground beef. Ground beef should be cooked to an internal temperature of 160°F. Color is not a reliable indicator of ground beef doneness.
