¼ cup
freshly grated Kowalski's Parmesan Cheese
¼ cup
Italian seasoned breadcrumbs
2
egg yolks, lightly beaten
2
green onions, thinly sliced
2 tsp.
dried basil
1 clove
garlic, finely minced
¼ tsp.
crushed red pepper flakes
½ tsp.
kosher salt
¼ tsp.
freshly ground Kowalski's Black Peppercorns
- cooking spray, as needed
4
Kowalski's Take & Bake Ciabatta Rolls (from the Bakery Department), split horizontally and lightly toasted
4 oz.
Kowalski's Fresh Mozzarella Cheese (from the Specialty Cheese Department), thinly sliced
½ cup
Kowalski's Pizza Sauce (from the Grocery Aisle), warmed in the microwave
- fresh basil leaves, for garnish
Directions
- Preheat grill to medium-high; clean grill grates.
- Using slightly damp hands, mix first 10 ingredients (through black pepper) in a large mixing bowl until thoroughly combined; form 4 patties.
- Spray burgers very lightly on both sides with cooking spray.
- Grill burgers over direct heat, covered, until done (4-5 min. per side), turning twice and topping evenly with cheese in the last 2 min. of cooking (after flipping burgers for the last time).
- Remove from heat; tent loosely with foil and let stand for 3-5 min.
- Serve burgers on warm rolls topped with sauce and garnished with fresh basil.
Tasty Tip:
- Shaping the burgers with slightly damp hands will help keep the mixture from sticking to your fingers.
