Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Lean ground turkey
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 1 large Egg yolk
- 0.25 cup Whole grain breadcrumbs (low sodium)
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 4 pieces Whole grain buns
- 4 pieces Lettuce leaves
- 1 medium Tomato, sliced
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, paprika, dried oregano, Dijon mustard, egg yolk, and breadcrumbs.
Use your hands or a spatula to mix all ingredients gently but thoroughly, ensuring that the spices and the egg are evenly distributed throughout the turkey mixture.
Divide the turkey mixture into four equal parts and shape each part into a patty, about 3/4-inch thick.
Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Once the oil is hot, carefully place the turkey patties in the skillet, ensuring they do not touch each other.
Cook the patties for about 6-7 minutes on each side or until an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C) is reached, indicating that they are thoroughly cooked.
While the turkey patties are cooking, slice the tomato and prepare the lettuce leaves.
Once the burgers are done, allow them to rest for a minute before assembling.
To assemble the burgers, place each patty on a whole grain bun followed by a lettuce leaf and a slice of tomato.
Serve immediately and enjoy your low sodium savory turkey burgers!
