Step-by-Step Instructions for Turkey Burger

  • In a mixing bowl, combine ground turkey, chopped onion, minced garlic, fresh parsley, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika (if using). Mix gently until just combined.
  • Divide the mixture into four equal portions and shape each into a patty approximately 1 inch thick.
  • Preheat your grill to medium-high heat or heat a skillet over medium heat. Add a splash of oil to prevent sticking.
  • Place the shaped patties on the grill or in the skillet and cook for 5-7 minutes on one side until golden brown. Flip and cook another 5-7 minutes until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
  • If using cheese, place a slice on each burger patty during the last minute of cooking to allow it to melt.
  • Lightly toast the burger buns on the grill or in a toaster until golden brown.
  • Assemble the burgers by placing a cooked patty on each toasted bun, adding lettuce, sliced tomatoes, and any desired condiments.
  • Serve the juicy Turkey Burgers hot and enjoy!
