Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 lb Ground turkey
- 0.5 cup Panko breadcrumbs
- 1 large Egg
- 1 tbsp (grated) Fresh ginger
- 2 cloves (minced) Garlic
- 2 stalks (finely chopped) Green onions
- 2 tbsp Soy sauce (low sodium)
- 1 tbsp Sesame oil
- 0.5 tsp Salt
- 0.25 tsp Black pepper
- 1 tbsp Sesame seeds
- 1 tbsp Vegetable oil
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey, panko breadcrumbs, egg, grated ginger, minced garlic, chopped green onions, soy sauce, sesame oil, salt, and black pepper.
Mix the ingredients gently but thoroughly until well combined. Avoid over-mixing to prevent tough patties.
Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape them into round, flat patties about 1/2-inch thick.
Sprinkle sesame seeds evenly over both sides of each patty and gently press them in to adhere.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Once the oil is shimmering, add the patties to the skillet, making sure not to overcrowd them (cook in batches if necessary).
Cook the patties for 4-5 minutes on one side, then flip and cook for an additional 4-5 minutes, or until both sides are golden brown and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Remove the patties from the skillet and let them rest for 2 minutes before serving.
Serve the sesame ginger turkey patties with steamed rice, a fresh salad, or your favorite dipping sauce for a complete meal.
