Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground turkey
- 0.33 cup Panko breadcrumbs
- 2 tablespoons Soy sauce
- 0.25 cup Teriyaki sauce
- 2 stalks Green onion
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Ginger, grated
- 1 teaspoon Sesame oil
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Pepper
- 4 pieces Burger buns
- 4 pieces Lettuce leaves
- 4 pieces Sliced pineapple rings (optional)
- 0.25 cup Mayonnaise (optional)
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey, panko breadcrumbs, soy sauce, teriyaki sauce, minced garlic, grated ginger, sesame oil, salt, and pepper.
Chop the green onions finely and add them to the bowl.
Mix all the ingredients together with your hands or a spoon until well-combined, being careful not to overwork the meat.
Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each portion into a patty about 1/2-inch thick.
Preheat a grill, grill pan, or skillet over medium-high heat and lightly oil the surface to prevent sticking.
Cook the patties for 4–5 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the patties are cooked through.
If desired, toast the burger buns on the grill or in the skillet for 1–2 minutes until golden.
Assemble the burgers: Place a lettuce leaf on the bottom half of each bun, followed by a turkey patty. Add a pineapple ring on top for a tropical touch, and spread a dollop of mayonnaise on the top bun if using.
Serve immediately with your favorite side dishes, such as sweet potato fries or a fresh salad.
