Cook the Mushrooms
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add the sliced mushrooms, sprinkle with salt and black pepper, and sauté for about 5-7 minutes until they are tender and golden brown. Remove from heat and set aside.

In a bowl, combine the ground chuck with salt and black pepper. Divide the mixture into two equal portions and shape them into burger patties.

Cook the Patties
In the same skillet used for the mushrooms, add the remaining olive oil. Increase the heat to medium-high and add the burger patties. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side for medium doneness. In the last minute of cooking, place a slice of Swiss cheese on each patty and cover the skillet to melt the cheese.
