1
Prepare the burger mixture by combining the minced garlic, finely chopped onion, oregano, soy sauce, black pepper, and half of the shredded mozzarella in a large bowl. Mix these ingredients thoroughly to evenly distribute the flavors.
2
Add the ground beef into the mixture and using your clean hands, gently combine until the seasonings are incorporated without overworking the meat to maintain tenderness.
3
Form the mixture into four equal-sized burger patties, about 1 inch thick each. Make a slight indentation in the middle of the patties to keep them from puffing during cooking.
4
Heat a grill pan over medium heat. Once hot, add the burger patties and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side or until thermometer inserted in the center of the patties reads 160 degrees Fahrenheit.
5
Sprinkle the remaining mozzarella cheese evenly on the cooked burgers. Cover the pan with a lid and let it sit for 1-2 minutes or until the cheese is melty and gooey.
6
While the burgers are cooking, spread the softened butter on the inner sides of the brioche buns and toast them in a non-stick pan over medium heat until light golden brown.
7
To assemble, place one cooked burger on the bottom half of each toasted bun. Generously top the burgers with marinara sauce and finish with the top bun.
