Turkey Burger Recipe
Description
The Turkey Burger Recipe uses 2 pounds of ground turkey mixed with bread crumbs, an egg, and fresh parsley, providing moisture and binding. Garlic and soy sauce enhance the savory flavor, complemented by garlic salt and a substantial amount of black pepper. The preparation involves shaping the mixture into 6-inch patties with an indent to prevent puffing.
They are cooked in a skillet over medium-low heat for 3 to 5 minutes per side until fully cooked through, reaching 165°F internally, preserving moisture within the lean turkey meat. The method focuses on careful heat management to avoid drying out the burgers.
These turkey burgers are a straightforward main dish that can be paired with traditional burger toppings or served alongside salads and vegetables. They present a leaner protein option with familiar burger flavors enhanced by herbs and garlic.
Ingredients
- 2 pounds ground turkey
- ⅛ cup seasoned bread crumbs
- 1 egg lightly beaten
- ¼ cup parsley chopped, fresh
- 1 teaspoon garlic minced
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 1 teaspoon garlic salt with parsley flakes
- ¼ cup black pepper ground
Instructions
- Add all the ingredients to a large bowl and mix together.
- Divide the meat into 6 portions. Press each portion into a 6 inch round patty (the patties will shrink once cooked).
- After you have formed the patties use the back of a spoon and make a slight indent in the middle of each of the patties. This will help keep the patties from puffing up in the middle.
- Heat skillet to medium low and cook the patties to an internal temp of 165°F. This will be 3-5 minutes per side.
