Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground turkey
- 0.5 cup Breadcrumbs
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 0.5 cup Whole cranberry sauce
- 0.25 cup Mayonnaise
- 4 pieces Lettuce leaves
- 4 pieces Tomato slices
- 4 pieces Burger buns
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey, breadcrumbs, egg, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well with your hands until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.
Divide the turkey mixture into 4 equal portions and shape them into burger patties about 1/2-inch thick.
Brush the patties lightly with olive oil to prevent them from sticking to the grill.
Preheat your grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Once hot, place the turkey patties on the grill and cook for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
While the patties are cooking, prepare the cranberry spread by mixing the cranberry sauce and mayonnaise in a small bowl until smooth. Set aside.
Lightly toast the burger buns on the grill for 1-2 minutes until golden and warm.
Assemble the burgers by spreading the cranberry spread on the inside of both the top and bottom bun halves. Place a cooked turkey patty on the bottom bun, followed by a lettuce leaf and a slice of tomato. Top with the bun lid.
Serve immediately and enjoy your grilled turkey burgers with cranberry spread!
