Ingredients
  

Main Ingredients
  • 1 lb Hamburger meat
  • 1 small Onion, finely chopped
  • 1/4 cup Fresh basil, chopped Can be found in the produce section
  • 1/4 cup Teriyaki sauce
  • 1/2 cup Bread crumbs Substitutions possible for gluten-free
  • 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese, grated Aged parmesan recommended for sharper taste

Method
 

Preparation
  1. In a mixing bowl, combine hamburger meat with finely chopped onion, fresh basil, teriyaki sauce, bread crumbs, and parmesan cheese. Use your hands or a spatula to ensure even mixing, but be cautious not to overwork the meat.
  2. Mix until well combined and form into patties, aiming for uniform thickness of about ¾ inch for even cooking.
Cooking
  1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (around 375°F).
  2. Grill the patties for about 5-6 minutes on each side, or until each reaches your desired doneness. Look for juices bubbling at the edges and a beautifully seared crust to indicate readiness.
Serving
  1. Serve on buns with your choice of toppings, such as lettuce, tomato, pickles, or additional parmesan for a gourmet touch.

Notes

Store leftover cooked burgers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To freeze, wrap uncooked patties in plastic wrap and place in an airtight container. Can be grilled directly from frozen.
