Ground Turkey Burgers

My ground turkey burgers recipe is a leaner option that's still incredibly juicy, tender, super tasty, and perfect to load up with your favorite toppings! I make them with breadcrumbs, eggs, mayo, and a few key spices for a delicious savory taste you expect in a great hamburger, but with way less fat and calories.

📝 Ingredients

• 2 pounds ground turkey (lean or regular)
• 1/2 cup breadcrumbs (or 3/4 cup panko)
• 2 large eggs
• 1/4 cup mayonnaise
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire
• 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning (or 3 tb fresh chopped herbs)
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• Salt and pepper
• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 8 hamburger buns
• Optional toppings: lettuce (tomato slices, pickles, avocado, and condiments)

👨‍🍳 Instructions

1. 1Set out a large bowl. Combine the ground turkey, breadcrumbs, eggs, mayonnaise, Worcestershire, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, 2 teaspoons salt, and ½ teaspoon ground black pepper. Use a spatula to mix the ingredients together until very well incorporated, but do not overmix.
2. 2Flatten the patty mixture out in the bowl then use the spatula to divide into eight portions.
3. 3Set a large skillet over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon of oil to the skillet. Gather each portion of ground turkey mix and form into patties that are slightly wider than the hamburger buns. Place four patties into the skillet. *Wet your hands before forming the patties.
4. 4Sear the turkey patties for about 5-6 minute per side. If they start turning dark, turn the heat down just a smidge.
5. 5Move the patties to a holding plate, then form the remaining four patties. Add the remaining oil to the skillet and fry the second batch of patties for 5-6 minutes per side.
6. 6Once all the patties are cooked, place them on buns and top with all your favorite hamburger toppings.
