  • Cook: In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. When oil shimmers, add the patties in a single layer to the pan. Allow them to brown for about 5 minutes. Once browned, flip, and allow the other side to brown for 3-4 minutes. Note: they do not need to be cooked through; you just want a nice sear on both sides.

Notes

* Note: Trader Joe's Portabella Cream of Mushroom soup is only available only around Thanksgiving time so stock up! The next best-tasting option is made by Pacific Foods. Campbell's condensed cream of mushroom is much thicker and may need more beef broth to get the right consistency.
