Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.

Ensure the grill is clean and oiled to prevent sticking.

In a mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, fresh herbs, lemon juice, breadcrumbs, egg, salt, and pepper.

Mix gently to avoid overworking the meat, which can make the burgers tough.

Make a small indentation in the center of each patty to prevent it from puffing up during cooking.

Place the patties on the grill and cook for 8-10 minutes per side, until fully cooked.
