Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound ground turkey
- 0.5 cup roasted red peppers, finely chopped
- 0.33 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 0.25 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 0.25 cup red onion, finely diced
- 1 large egg
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 4 pieces burger buns
- 1 assorted optional toppings (lettuce, tomato, onion, etc.)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey, roasted red peppers, feta cheese, panko breadcrumbs, minced garlic, parsley, red onion, egg, salt, and black pepper.
Mix the ingredients together until evenly incorporated. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the burgers tough.
Divide the mixture into four equal portions and shape each into a patty approximately 1-inch thick.
Heat a large skillet or grill over medium heat. Add the olive oil to the skillet, or lightly oil the grill grates if grilling.
Cook the turkey burgers for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Avoid pressing down on the patties, as this can cause them to dry out.
If desired, lightly toast the burger buns on the skillet or grill during the last minute of cooking.
Assemble the burgers by placing each patty onto a bun and adding your choice of toppings, such as lettuce, tomato, and onion.
Serve immediately with your favorite side dishes like sweet potato fries or a fresh salad.
