Applebee's Classic Patty Melt

Courses: Sandwiches
Serves: 4 people

Recipe Ingredients

1   Burger patty
  Salt - to taste
  Freshly-ground black pepper - to taste
  Granulated garlic - to taste
  Melted butter - as needed
2 slices  Italian bread
2 tablespoons 30mlMayonnaise with roasted garlic and mustard
2 oz 56gSwiss cheese
2 oz 56gCheddar cheese
1/2 cup 31g / 1.1ozSliced onions

Recipe Instructions

Season one side of the burger with salt, pepper and garlic. Place on grill or in broiler, seasoned-side down. Then season the other side. Cook to desired doneness. (At our Applebee's, the minimum internal temperature of any burger is 155 degrees.

While burger is cooking, melt butter in fry pan on medium heat or in electric skillet (set at 350 degrees). Spread mayonnaise onto bread. Drop bread, dry-side down, onto melted pools and swirl to coat (to avoid sticking/burning).

Cover one slice of bread with two slices of Swiss cheese and the other with two slices of cheddar. In a separate frying/saute pan, melt butter and saute sliced onions. Season with salt, pepper and garlic while heating.

Place cooked burger patty on top of one cheese-topped slice of bread and the sauteed onions on the other. Carefully close and cut sandwich. Serve with your favorite summer side dish. We serve ours in "classic" style with seasoned French fries and a pickle.
