How to Make Easy Hamburgers With A Cajun Twist

  1. In a large bowl, gently combine 1 lb ground beef, 1 tbsp Cajun seasoning, 1 tsp salt, and 1/2 tsp black pepper. Mix until just combined; avoid overmixing.
  2. Shape the mixture into 2-3 patties, about 3/4 inch thick. Make a slight indentation in the center of each patty to prevent them from bulging during cooking.
  3. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-low heat. Alternatively, preheat your grill to medium-low heat.
  4. Place the patties in the skillet or on the grill. Cook for 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare, or longer for your desired doneness. Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).
  5. During the last minute of cooking, top the burgers with extra Cajun seasoning if desired.
  6. Serve immediately on toasted buns with your favorite toppings and a side of fries. Enjoy!
