Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound lean ground turkey
- 0.5 cup whole wheat breadcrumbs
- 1 large egg white
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 spray olive oil cooking spray
- 4 pieces whole wheat burger buns
- 4 pieces lettuce leaves
- 1 medium tomato, sliced
- 0.5 medium red onion, thinly sliced
- 2 tablespoons mustard or ketchup (optional)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine lean ground turkey, whole wheat breadcrumbs, egg white, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, and salt.
Mix the ingredients thoroughly with your hands or a spatula until well combined.
Divide the mixture into four equal portions and shape them into burger patties.
Preheat a non-stick skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat and lightly coat it with olive oil cooking spray.
Place the turkey patties on the skillet or grill pan and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until cooked through and no longer pink in the center.
While the burgers are cooking, split the whole wheat burger buns and lightly toast them on the grill pan or separate toaster.
Once the burgers are cooked, assemble each by placing a turkey patty on the bottom half of a toasted bun.
Top each patty with lettuce leaf, tomato slice, and thinly sliced red onion.
Add a small dollop of mustard or ketchup if desired.
Finish assembling by placing the top half of the bun over the toppings and serve immediately.
