Ingredients
- 1 pound Lean ground turkey
- 1 cup Rolled oats
- 1 large Egg white
- 1 cup Low-fat shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh parsley
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the lean ground turkey, rolled oats, egg white, garlic powder, onion powder, black pepper, salt, and chopped fresh parsley.
Step 2
Mix the ingredients thoroughly using a fork or your hands until well integrated.
Step 3
Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each portion into a round patty approximately 1-inch thick.
Step 4
Make an indentation in the center of each patty about 1/2 inch deep to prevent it from puffing up during cooking.
Step 5
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Step 6
Place the patties in the skillet and cook for about 5-6 minutes on each side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 165°F and are golden brown.
Step 7
About 1 minute before the patties are done, sprinkle 1/4 cup of the low-fat shredded cheddar cheese on each patty. Cover the skillet with a lid to melt the cheese completely.
Step 8
Remove the patties from the skillet and let them rest for a couple of minutes before serving.
Step 9
Serve these heart-healthy cheesy hamburger patties with a side of mixed greens or whole-grain buns for a complete meal.
