Ingredients
- 500 g Duck breast, skinless
- 4 pieces Whole wheat burger buns
- 1 large Egg white
- 30 g Panko breadcrumbs
- 2 tbsp Fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tsp Garlic powder
- 1 tsp Onion powder
- 1 tsp Paprika
- 0.5 tsp Ground black pepper
- 0.5 tsp Salt
- 4 pieces Lettuce leaves
- 1 medium Tomato, sliced
- 0.5 medium Red onion, thinly sliced
- 1 as needed Olive oil spray
- 4 tsp Dijon mustard
Directions
Step 1
Cut the duck breast into small cubes and place them in a food processor. Pulse until the meat is finely ground, taking care not to over-process.
Step 2
In a large bowl, combine the ground duck, egg white, panko breadcrumbs, parsley, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, ground black pepper, and salt. Mix until the ingredients are well incorporated.
Step 3
Divide the duck mixture into four equal parts and shape them into burger patties, each approximately 1-inch thick.
Step 4
Preheat a grill or non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Lightly spray with olive oil.
Step 5
Place the duck patties on the grill or skillet and cook for about 6-8 minutes on each side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 75°C (165°F).
Step 6
While the burgers are cooking, lightly toast the whole wheat buns on the grill until golden brown, about 1-2 minutes.
Step 7
Assemble each burger by spreading 1 teaspoon of Dijon mustard on the bottom half of each bun.
Step 8
Place a cooked duck patty on top, followed by a lettuce leaf, a slice of tomato, and a few slices of red onion.
Step 9
Cap with the top half of the bun and serve immediately.
