How to Make Beef And Zucchini Burgers
- Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
- In a large bowl, combine 1 lb ground beef, 1 medium zucchini (finely grated and squeezed dry), 1/2 cup finely chopped onion, 1/4 cup breadcrumbs, 1 egg, 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper.
- Gently mix all ingredients until just combined. Avoid overmixing, as this can result in tough burgers.
- Form the mixture into 4 equal-sized patties.
- Grill the patties for 4-5 minutes per side, or until cooked to your desired level of doneness. For a more well-done burger, continue grilling for a few minutes longer per side.
- Serve immediately on your favorite buns with your desired toppings. Enjoy!
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
