Ingredients
- 250 grams ground chicken
- 250 grams ground turkey
- 60 grams breadcrumbs (preferably whole wheat)
- 1 large egg
- 0.5 medium red onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 2 teaspoons olive oil
- 4 pieces whole wheat burger buns

Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, ground turkey, breadcrumbs, egg, red onion, garlic, parsley, paprika, cumin, salt, and black pepper.
Step 2
Using clean hands, mix the ingredients thoroughly until well combined. Be careful not to overmix, which can make the patties tough.
Step 3
Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each portion into a burger patty, about 1/2 inch thick.
Step 4
Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick skillet or grill pan over medium heat.
Step 5
Cook the patties for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
Step 6
While the patties are cooking, prepare the burger buns by toasting them lightly on a dry skillet or toaster, if desired.
Step 7
Assemble the burgers by placing a lettuce leaf on the bottom bun, followed by the cooked chicken turkey patty, 2 tomato slices, and the top bun.
Step 8
Serve immediately and enjoy your healthy chicken turkey burgers with your favorite side salad or sweet potato fries.
