Equipment
Ingredients
- 1 lb ground beef
- 1/2 cup green onions scallions
- 1 large egg
- 1.5 teaspoons garlic powder (1+1/2)
- 1 tablespoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- 1 tablespoon olive oil or butter for cooking
Instructions
- Add all ingredients (except olive oil) to a large mixing bowl.1 lb ground beef, 1/2 cup green onions, 1 large egg, 1.5 teaspoons garlic powder, 1 tablespoon ground cumin, 1 teaspoon smoked paprika, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, 1 teaspoon salt, 1 teaspoon dried parsley, 1 tablespoon olive oil
- Mix by hand or spoon just until combined—don’t overwork.
- Use a burger press or your hands to shape into 4 equal patties.
Traditional method
- Heat a skillet over medium-high heat and add olive oil.
- Cook the patties for 2–3 minutes per side, until browned and cooked through (160°F internal temperature).
- Let rest for 2 minutes before serving.
Alternative oven method:
- Bake patties at 375°F (190°C) for 15-20 minutes. Ideal when roasting veggies on the same tray for a hands-off dinner.
Notes
- Don’t overmix the meat — Mixing too much makes the patties dense. Just combine until the ingredients come together.
- Use a burger press — It helps shape even patties that cook evenly and look pro. This burger press is the one I use every time.
- Choose 85/15 ground beef — That 15% fat makes these burgers extra juicy and flavorful without drying out.
- Storage tip: Freeze raw patties on a tray with parchment paper. Once frozen, transfer to a bag for up to 3 months.
- Reheat leftovers in a skillet over medium heat or in the air fryer for 5–6 minutes.
