Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb ground turkey
- 0.5 cup plain breadcrumbs
- 1 large egg
- 0.5 cup yellow onion
- 2 cloves garlic
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tbsp fresh parsley
- 1 tbsp dijon mustard
- 1 tsp kosher salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
- 2 tbsp olive oil
Instructions
Finely chop the yellow onion and mince the garlic cloves.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey, breadcrumbs, egg, chopped onion, minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, parsley, dijon mustard, salt, and pepper.
Mix the ingredients gently with your hands or a spatula until they are well combined. Avoid overmixing, as it can make the burgers dense.
Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape them into burger patties approximately 3/4 inch thick. Use your thumb to create a slight indentation in the center of each patty to help them cook evenly and prevent puffing up.
Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium heat and add olive oil.
Once the oil is hot, place the patties in the skillet, being careful not to overcrowd. Cook for 4-5 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) when tested with a meat thermometer.
Remove the patties from the skillet and let them rest for 2-3 minutes before serving.
Stack the turkey burgers on hamburger buns with your favorite toppings like lettuce, tomato, onion, and a spread like mayonnaise or mustard.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
