Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Lean ground turkey or chicken
- 0.5 cup Low-fat shredded cheddar cheese
- 0.25 cup Breadcrumbs
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tablespoons Low-fat Greek yogurt
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 as needed Non-stick cooking spray
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey (or chicken), low-fat shredded cheddar cheese, breadcrumbs, Worcestershire sauce, and low-fat Greek yogurt. Mix until well blended.
Add the onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper into the mixture, mixing thoroughly to ensure even seasoning.
Shape the mixture into 4 equal-sized patties, making sure they are all approximately the same thickness for even cooking.
Heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat and lightly coat with non-stick cooking spray to prevent sticking.
Place the patties in the skillet and cook for about 6-7 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C) and the patties are cooked through.
Remove the patties from the skillet and let them rest for a few minutes before serving to retain their juices.
Serve the patties on whole-grain buns, accompanied by your favorite low-fat toppings and condiments for a delicious, healthy cheeseburger experience.
