1/2 cup seasoned breadcrumbs (or substitute with crushed crackers)
1/4 cup whole milk for tender texture
1 large egg, room temperature for better binding
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce for umami richness
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup ketchup for that classic glaze
