Shape the Patty
Divide the mixture into two equal portions and shape each portion into a patty, about ¾ inch thick. Make a slight indentation in the center of each patty to prevent it from puffing up while cooking.

Cook the Patty
In the same skillet, add the burger patties. Cook for about 4-5 minutes on one side, then flip. Top each patty with a slice of cheddar cheese and continue cooking for another 4-5 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C).
