Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 250 grams ground chicken
- 250 grams ground turkey
- 60 grams breadcrumbs (preferably whole wheat)
- 1 large egg
- 0.5 medium red onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- 4 pieces whole wheat burger buns
- 4 pieces lettuce leaves
- 8 pieces tomato slices
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, ground turkey, breadcrumbs, egg, red onion, garlic, parsley, paprika, cumin, salt, and black pepper.
Using clean hands, mix the ingredients thoroughly until well combined. Be careful not to overmix, which can make the patties tough.
Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each portion into a burger patty, about 1/2 inch thick.
Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick skillet or grill pan over medium heat.
Cook the patties for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
While the patties are cooking, prepare the burger buns by toasting them lightly on a dry skillet or toaster, if desired.
Assemble the burgers by placing a lettuce leaf on the bottom bun, followed by the cooked chicken turkey patty, 2 tomato slices, and the top bun.
Serve immediately and enjoy your healthy chicken turkey burgers with your favorite side salad or sweet potato fries.
