Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 g ground turkey
- 60 g breadcrumbs
- 1 piece large egg
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 4 pieces burger buns
- 4 pieces lettuce leaves
- 4 slices sliced tomatoes
- 4 slices sliced cheddar cheese
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey, breadcrumbs, egg, garlic powder, onion powder, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and black pepper. Mix until all ingredients are well incorporated.
Divide the turkey mixture into four equal portions and shape each portion into a patty about 1 inch thick. Ensure the patties are uniform in size for even cooking.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Place the patties in the skillet, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Cook for 4-5 minutes on one side, or until nicely browned.
Flip the patties and add a slice of cheddar cheese on top of each patty. Cook for an additional 4-5 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the patties reaches 165°F (74°C) and the cheese is melted.
Lightly toast the burger buns in a toaster or on a grill for about 1 minute, until golden brown.
Assemble the burgers by placing a lettuce leaf on the bottom half of each bun, followed by a turkey patty, a slice of tomato, and the top half of the bun.
Serve immediately with your choice of sides.
