How to Make Beef And Zucchini Burgers

  1. Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat.
  2. 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.
  3. Gently mix all ingredients until just combined. Avoid overmixing, as this can result in tough burgers.
  4. Form the mixture into 4 equal-sized patties.
  5. 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.
  6. Serve immediately on your favorite buns with your desired toppings. Enjoy!
