Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Lean ground turkey
- 0.5 cup Onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 4 pieces Whole grain hamburger buns
- 4 pieces Lettuce leaves
- 1 medium Tomato, sliced
- 4 pieces Cheese slices (optional)
Instructions
In a large bowl, combine the ground turkey with the chopped onion, minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, chopped parsley, and egg.
Season the mixture with salt and black pepper, ensuring even distribution of ingredients.
Using your hands, form the mixture into four equal patties, about 1 inch thick.
Heat a large skillet over medium heat and add the olive oil.
Once the oil is shimmering, add the turkey patties to the skillet, making sure not to overcrowd the pan.
Cook the patties for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
If using cheese, place a slice on each patty during the last minute of cooking and cover the skillet to melt the cheese.
While the patties are cooking, toast the hamburger buns lightly in a toaster or on the skillet.
Assemble the burgers by placing a lettuce leaf on each bottom bun, followed by the turkey patties, tomato slices, and top buns.
Serve the turkey burgers immediately, and enjoy a high-protein and flavorful meal.
