Giada De Laurentiis, a renowned celebrity chef, shares her innovative Caprese burger recipe on her website, Giadzy. Infusing traditional burger patties with pesto, she elevates flavors with a blend of garlic, basil, and cheese. The pesto not only saves time on additional aromatics but also enhances the umami of the ground beef. De Laurentiis's recipe includes garnishing with pesto mayo and fresh burrata, and she offers the option of using focaccia instead of standard burger buns for added Italian flair. Whether using store-bought or homemade pesto, the dish celebrates Italian cuisine.
Pesto is complex and bright, offering numerous herbal, nutty, cheesy, and earthy savory flavors to round out the umami-rich beef.
She also garnishes her burgers with pesto-infused mayo and layers the patties with slices of tomatoes and fresh burrata mozzarella, so it lives up to its Caprese name.
