Cooking
- Heat a grill or skillet over medium-high heat and lightly grease it with olive oil or non-stick spray.
- Cook the patties for 5–6 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and they are no longer pink inside.

Notes
If you have leftovers, store the cooked burgers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Uncooked patties can be frozen for up to 3 months. For a crunchier texture, consider using panko breadcrumbs.
