Description
A simple recipe for making flavorful and moist turkey burgers.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 pound ground turkey (85% lean recommended)
- 1/4 cup finely chopped onion
- 2 tablespoons plain breadcrumbs
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon dried parsley
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
- 4 hamburger buns
- Your favorite toppings (lettuce, tomato, cheese, condiments)
Instructions
- In a medium bowl, combine the ground turkey, chopped onion, breadcrumbs, Worcestershire sauce, parsley, salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
- Mix gently with your hands until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Divide the mixture into four equal portions and form into patties about 3/4 inch thick. Make a small indentation in the center of each patty to prevent bulging during cooking.
- Heat a grill or skillet over medium heat. Lightly oil the cooking surface.
- Cook the burgers for 5 to 7 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Place cheese on the burgers during the last minute of cooking, if desired.
- Toast the hamburger buns lightly on the grill or in the skillet.
- Assemble your burgers with your chosen toppings and serve immediately.
Notes
- For extra moisture, you can add 1 tablespoon of olive oil to the meat mixture.
- If you prefer not to grill, you can bake the burgers at 375 degrees Fahrenheit for 20 to 25 minutes, flipping halfway through.
