Ingredients
- 250 grams Ground beef (preferably 80% lean)
- 250 grams Ground pork
- 0.5 medium Onion
- 2 small Garlic cloves
- 1 large Egg
- 50 grams Unsalted breadcrumbs
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried basil
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
Directions
Step 1
Finely chop half a medium onion and mince two small garlic cloves.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef and pork.
Step 3
Add the chopped onion, minced garlic, egg, and unsalted breadcrumbs to the meat mixture.
Step 4
Sprinkle in black pepper, dried oregano, dried basil, and paprika.
Step 5
Mix everything gently but thoroughly with your hands until all ingredients are well combined. Be careful not to overmix as this can lead to tough patties.
Step 6
Divide the mixture into four equal parts and shape each into a patty, about 1 inch thick.
Step 7
Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Step 8
Once the oil is hot, add the patties to the skillet. Cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the patties are evenly browned and cooked through to an internal temperature of 160°F (70°C).
Step 9
Remove the patties from the skillet and let them rest for a few minutes before serving. This helps retain their juices.
Step 10
Serve the patties with your choice of healthy sides such as a salad, roasted vegetables, or a whole-grain bun.
