directions
- Melt 1 tablespoon butter in a medium skillet over med-low heat.

- While the onion is cooking, combine the beef and Worcestershire sauce in a large bowl; season with salt and pepper and mix thoroughly.
- Score the mixture into 4 equal portions and form them into patties slightly thinner at the center than at the edges for even cooking and to ensure a flat surface.
- Heat the oil in a large nonstick skillet over med-high heat until very hot.
- Cook the burgers, turning once, 10 minutes for medium.
- Top the burgers with the cheese for the last minute of cooking, tenting the skillet with foil, if you like, to help the cheese melt.
- While the burgers are cooking, toast the bread, then spread with the remaining 2 tablespoons softened butter.
- Stir the mustard and a splash of chicken stock into the onions.
- Stir in the parsley, then remove from the heat.
- Place a burger on each of 4 buttered toasts and top with some onions.
- Set the remaining buttered toast on top.
