Ingredients
- 500 g ground turkey
- 60 g breadcrumbs
- 1 piece large egg
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tsp salt
- 0.5 tsp black pepper
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 4 pieces burger buns
- 4 pieces lettuce leaves
- 4 slices sliced tomatoes
- 4 slices sliced cheddar cheese
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey, breadcrumbs, egg, garlic powder, onion powder, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and black pepper. Mix until all ingredients are well incorporated.
Step 2
Divide the turkey mixture into four equal portions and shape each portion into a patty about 1 inch thick. Ensure the patties are uniform in size for even cooking.
Step 3
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat.
Step 4
Place the patties in the skillet, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Cook for 4-5 minutes on one side, or until nicely browned.
Step 5
Flip the patties and add a slice of cheddar cheese on top of each patty. Cook for an additional 4-5 minutes, or until the internal temperature of the patties reaches 165°F (74°C) and the cheese is melted.
Step 6
Lightly toast the burger buns in a toaster or on a grill for about 1 minute, until golden brown.
Step 7
Assemble the burgers by placing a lettuce leaf on the bottom half of each bun, followed by a turkey patty, a slice of tomato, and the top half of the bun.
Step 8
Serve immediately with your choice of sides.
