Ingredients

• 500 g lean ground turkey
• 50 g oats
• 15 ml low-sodium soy sauce
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1 tsp onion powder
• 0.5 tsp black pepper
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 2 large onions
• 240 ml low-sodium beef broth
• 1 tbsp cornstarch
• 2 tbsp water
• 2 tbsp fresh parsley

Directions

Step 1

In a large bowl, combine the lean ground turkey, oats, low-sodium soy sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, and black pepper. Mix until just combined, being careful not to overwork the mixture.

Step 2

Divide the mixture into four equal parts and form them into oval-shaped patties about 1-inch thick.

Step 3

Heat the olive oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Once hot, add the turkey patties and cook for about 5 minutes per side, or until they are nicely browned and cooked through. Remove the patties from the pan and set them aside.

Step 4

Thinly slice the onions. In the same pan, add the sliced onions and cook over medium heat until they are soft and caramelized, about 8-10 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 5

Pour the low-sodium beef broth into the pan with the onions and bring it to a simmer, scraping up any brown bits from the bottom of the pan for extra flavor.

Step 6

In a small bowl, mix the cornstarch with the water to create a slurry. Stir this mixture into the simmering broth and onions, continuing to stir until the gravy thickens, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 7

Return the turkey patties to the pan, nestling them in the onion gravy. Allow them to heat through for another 2 minutes.

Step 8

Garnish with freshly chopped parsley and serve immediately with your choice of sides, such as steamed vegetables or a simple salad.
