Ingredients
  • 1
    slightly beaten egg
  • 2/3
    cup chopped onion
  • 1/2
    cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/4
    cup snipped fresh basil or 1 tablespoon dried basil, crushed
  • 1/4
    cup ketchup
  • 2
    cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4
    teaspoon salt
  • 1/4
    teaspoon pepper
  • 1

Directions

1. In a large mixing bowl combine egg, onion, Parmesan cheese, basil, ketchup, garlic, salt, and pepper. Add ground beef and turkey; mix well.

2. Shape meat mixture into eight 3/4-inch-thick patties. If desired, wrap patties individually in plastic wrap; pack the patties with ice in a cooler for up to 4 hours.

3. Grill patties on rack of uncovered grill directly over medium coals for 15 to 18 minutes or until an instant read thermometer registers 160 degree F when inserted near the center, turning once. (Meat patties will appear pink when done because of ketchup added to mixture.) Serve patties on buns with lettuce and tomato. Makes 8 servings.
