Step 1
Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate.

Step 3
Spray patties with cooking spray and cook on the preheated grill until hot and slightly pink in the center, about 5 minutes per side. Top each patty with a slice of cheese; continue cooking until cheese melts, about 2 minutes more. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 140 degrees F (60 degrees C).
