- Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat with olive oil. Add the patties and cook for 4 minutes, until golden brown and firm when pressed.

Notes
- These burgers are made with Honeysuckle White Ground Turkey making these leaner than a traditional beef burger, and once you add on all the toppings you won’t miss the greasy mess and soggy bun.
