Step 2

Spray a large skillet with nonstick spray, then heat over medium-high heat. Cook patties for 3 minutes per side until seared on the outside and heated to package specifications. Place cheese slices on the patties during the last minutes of cooking so the cheese melts. Remove from heat and tent with foil to keep warm.

Spray a large skillet with nonstick spray, and then heat over medium-high heat. Cook patties for 3 minutes perside, until seared on outside and heated to package specifications.
