Directions
Step 1
In a large bowl, combine the ground duck meat, egg, breadcrumbs, chopped shallot, minced garlic, parsley, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
Step 2
Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each into a patty about 1 inch thick.

Once the oil is hot, add the duck patties. Cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).

While the patties are cooking, lightly toast the burger buns in a separate pan or on the grill.
