Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground turkey or chicken
- 0.5 cup breadcrumbs (plain or seasoned)
- 1 large egg
- 0.25 cup onion, finely diced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped (optional)
- 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil or cooking spray
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey or chicken, breadcrumbs, egg, diced onion, minced garlic, parsley (if using), Worcestershire sauce, salt, and black pepper.
Mix gently using your hands or a spoon until the ingredients are just combined. Avoid overmixing, as this can make the patties tough.
Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each portion into a patty about 3/4-inch thick.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat. Add the olive oil or lightly coat the skillet with cooking spray.
Place the patties in the skillet, making sure not to overcrowd them. Cook for about 5-6 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the patties are golden brown.
Remove the patties from the skillet and let them rest for 2-3 minutes before serving.
Serve warm with your favorite sides, in a burger bun, or over a fresh salad.
