In a large mixing bowl, combine the lean ground beef and ground turkey breast.
Finely mince the garlic and fresh parsley. Add them to the mixing bowl.
Add the egg whites, rolled oats, grated Parmesan cheese, black pepper, and kosher salt to the ground meat mixture.
Using clean hands or a large spoon, mix all the ingredients until evenly combined. Be careful not to overmix as it can result in tough patties.
Divide the mixture into six equal portions. Shape each portion into a thick, round patty, about 2 cm in thickness.
Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil to the pan to prevent sticking.
Once the oil is hot, place the patties in the skillet, leaving space between each one. Cook for 6-7 minutes on the first side without pressing down on them.
Flip the patties using a spatula and cook for an additional 6-7 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 75°C (165°F) and the patties are fully cooked.
Remove the Svizzera di Carne Trita from the skillet and allow them to rest for 2 minutes before serving.
Serve warm with a side of roasted vegetables, a fresh salad, or a high-protein bun of your choice for a complete meal.
