Open-Faced Pizza Burgers
The first step is to toast the split English muffins on a sheet pan in the oven. While they’re crisping, you’ll brown the ground beef on the stovetop, and mix in a couple spices and just enough marinara to make it saucy. Spoon the saucy beef over the toasted English muffins and sprinkle with shredded mozzarella, then broil for just a minute or so to melt the cheese.
Ingredients:
- 1 small yellow onion
- 4 English muffins
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- 1 pound lean ground beef
- 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1 cup pizza or marinara sauce
- 1 cup shredded low-moisture mozzarella cheese.

Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350ºF and place a rack 6 inches below the broiler element. In the meantime, chop one tiny yellow onion. Halve four English muffins. Transfer to a rimmed baking sheet, cut-side up. Toast in the oven for approximately five minutes, or until gently browned.
After setting aside, preheat the oven to broil. In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium-high heat until it shimmers. Add the onion and simmer for about 5 minutes, stirring periodically, until it is tender. Stir in 1 pound of lean ground beef, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, and 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning for the flavor.
Cook, using a wooden spoon to break up the meat into smaller pieces, until it is browned, starting to crisp, and cooked through, 5 to 7 minutes.
Add 1 cup of pizza or marinara sauce, and heat for about 3 minutes, or until slightly thickened. The mixture should be divided among the English muffins. Add one cup of shredded mozzarella cheese on top. Broil for 1 to 2 minutes, or until the cheese is melted.
Ready to serve!
Enjoy!
