Over medium heat pan fry the patties, brown one side flip, cover with lid and continue cooking until done (apprx 5 min per side), set aside keep warm or 3 if your pan is large enough when you flip the patties add the onions & garlic, then the peppers and finish cooking all at once - otherwise follow along as suggested.

Remove any excess grease from the pan.

Meanwhile combine Onions and garlic.

Add onions & garlic to pan and cook until they are well browned. Apprx 8 minutes 7 Add peppers, tomatoes, basil & pine nuts cook 4 minutes.

Lightly Paint one side of the Panini bread with oilive oil.

Place a burger & 1/4 on the pepper mixture on 1/2 of the uncoated side of the panini, sprinkle with 1/4 of the parmesan, fold in half.

Grill in a fry pan (apprx 3 minutes per side or until as crisp and golden as you like it) Brown one side then the other .
