Steps
- Mix ALL the ingredients together well, making sure to really work the spices into the meat.
- Get your skillet hot and add the oil.
- Drop heaping Tablespoons of meat mixture into the hot skillet.
- Gently press the meat mixture down into the skillet, making oddly shaped patties.
- Let cook for 5 to 7 minutes and flip.
- When you flip the first time add the salt and pepper. Also press the patties down a bit with a spatula so they are flatter.
- Cook the second side 5 to 7 minutes.
- Turn heat to low and cover with a lid and let cook for 10 min.
- Remove from pan and let patties rest 10 minutes.
