Bobby Flay's Trattoria Burger

Ingredients

1 1/2 pounds ground beef
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 tablespoons canola oil
8 ounces fresh mozzarella, cut into 8 slices
4 hamburger buns, split and toasted, if desired
8 fresh basil leaves, washed and dried
8 teaspoons balsamic vinegar

Preparation

1
Divide meat into 4 equal portions and form each into 3/4-inch thick patties. Make a thumb impression in center of each. Season both sides with salt and pepper.
2
Cook the burgers, using caola oil and topping each one with 2 slices of cheese and a basting cover during last minute of cooking. (I just grilled the burgers)
3
Place a burger on the bottom half of each bun. Top with 1 slice of tomato and 2 basil leaves. Drizzle each burger with 2 teaspoons of balsamic vinegar and 1 teaspoon of olive oil. Cover with bun tops and serve immediately.
4
I served them with Lays Tomato Basil chips
