Ingredients

  • 8 thin slices Salami
  • 1 1/4 lbs Ground chuck, 85% lean or less
  • Kosher salt, to taste
  • Black pepper, to taste
  • 6 oz Fresh mozzarella, sliced
  • 4 Ciabatta rolls
  • 4 slices Tomato
  • 1/2 cup Sun-dried tomato pesto
  • 2 cups Arugula

Instructions

  1. Heat oven to 400° F.
  2. Arrange the salami in a single layer on a rimmed baking sheet. Bake until crisp, about 8 – 10 minutes. Set aside to cool.
  3. Heat grill to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grates.
  4. Form the beef into four 3/4 inch thick patties. Season with salt and pepper to taste, about 1/2 tsp each is a good place to start.
  5. Cook the patties for 4 – 5 minutes. Flip and cook for 4-5 more minutes, until a meat thermometer inserted in the center reads 155° F for medium. Top the burgers with the mozzarella during the last 3 minutes of cooking.
  6. Spread the rolls with equal amounts of the tomato pesto.
  7. Form sandwiches with the rolls, burgers, tomatoes, salami and mixed greens.
  8. Serve immediately.
