- 1 teaspoon ginger, grated
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 0.5 teaspoon garlic powder
- 0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 0.5 cup teriyaki sauce
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 4 burger buns

Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey, panko breadcrumbs, egg, green onions, grated ginger, soy sauce, garlic powder, and ground black pepper. Use your hands or a spoon to mix until well combined.
Step 2
Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and form into burger patties, about 1/2 inch thick.
Step 3
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or grill pan over medium heat.
Step 4
Place the turkey patties in the skillet and cook for 5-6 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the patties are golden brown.
Step 5
During the last 2 minutes of cooking, brush each burger patty generously with teriyaki sauce, allowing it to caramelize slightly on the heat.
Step 6
Toast the burger buns lightly in a separate skillet or toaster if desired.
Step 7
Assemble the burgers by placing a lettuce leaf on the bottom half of each bun, followed by a teriyaki-glazed turkey patty, a slice of tomato, and any additional toppings such as red onion. Top with the upper half of the bun.
