Instructions
- 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground pork, garlic, parsley, thyme, lemon zest, Dijon mustard, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes, if using. Mix with your hands until the seasonings are evenly distributed, but stop as soon as the mixture is uniform — overworking the meat will make the patties dense.

Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each into a patty about 3/4 inch thick. Press a shallow dimple into the center of each patty with your thumb to help them cook flat.
