This Pheasant Burger is a delicious and healthy twist on the traditional American burger, featuring lean pheasant meat combined with aromatic herbs and spices. Served on a bed of crisp lettuce and topped with fresh veggies, this dish is perfect for a Paleo diet.

• Onion powder - 1 teaspoon
• Smoked paprika - 1 teaspoon
