Ground turkey is leaner and healthier.

Preheat the grill or skillet over medium-high heat.

Season the ground beef with salt, black pepper, and oregano.

Form the seasoned beef into patties, making a slight indentation in the center.

Grill or pan-fry the patties for 4-5 minutes on each side, until cooked to desired doneness.

In the last minute of cooking, place a slice of mozzarella cheese on each patty to melt.

Toast the ciabatta bread on the grill or in a toaster until golden brown.

Drizzle olive oil on the bottom half of the ciabatta bread.

Layer arugula, the cooked patty with melted cheese, tomato slices, red onion, and basil leaves on the bread.

Add pepperoncini for a spicy kick, if desired.

Drizzle balsamic glaze over the top and close the sandwich with the other half of the ciabatta.

Serve immediately with a side of chips or salad.
