In a large mixing bowl, combine the lean ground turkey, whole grain breadcrumbs, egg white, chopped fresh parsley, garlic powder, onion powder, ground black pepper, and salt-free seasoning blend.
Use your hands to gently mix the ingredients until they are just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can result in tough patties.
Divide the turkey mixture into four equal parts and shape each portion into a patty approximately 1/2-inch thick.
Brush the patties lightly with extra virgin olive oil on both sides to prevent sticking and to promote browning.
Preheat your grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Make sure the grates are clean and lightly oiled.
Place the patties on the grill and cook for about 4 to 5 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the patties are cooked through.
Once done, remove the patties from the grill and let them rest for 2 to 3 minutes before serving.
Serve the grilled turkey patties on whole-grain buns or with a side of mixed greens for a complete heart-healthy meal.
