Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground turkey
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 0.25 cup Breadcrumbs
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 4 whole Burger buns
- 4 whole Lettuce leaves
- 1 whole Tomato, sliced
- 0.25 cup Mayonnaise or preferred burger sauce
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey, grated Parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, minced garlic, chopped parsley, egg, salt, and black pepper.
Step 2
Mix the ingredients gently using your hands or a spatula until well incorporated. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the burgers tough.
Step 3
Divide the mixture into four equal portions and shape them into burger patties, about 1 inch thick.
Step 4
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Step 5
Cook the turkey patties for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Avoid pressing down on the patties while cooking to keep them juicy.
Step 6
Toast the burger buns lightly in the same skillet or on the grill, if desired.
Step 7
Assemble the burgers by spreading mayonnaise or your preferred sauce on the bottom half of each bun.
Step 8
Place a lettuce leaf on the bun, followed by a turkey patty, a slice of tomato, and the top half of the bun.
Step 9
Serve immediately with your favorite sides, such as sweet potato fries or a green salad.
