Fresh Turkey Burger Recipe:
This recipe is for a classic, juicy turkey burger, perfect for grilling or pan-frying. It's adaptable to your taste, allowing you to add spices and toppings to your liking.
Yields: 4 servings
Prep time: 15 minutes
Cook time: 5-7 minutes per patty
Ingredients:
* 1 lb ground turkey (dark meat or a mix is best for moisture)
* 1/4 cup finely chopped onion
* 1/4 cup bread crumbs (plain or seasoned)
* 1 egg, lightly beaten
* 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley
* 1 teaspoon salt
* 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
* 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
* 1/4 teaspoon onion powder (optional)
* Your favorite burger toppings (lettuce, tomato, cheese, etc.)
Equipment:
* Mixing bowl
* Measuring spoons and cups
* Grill or skillet
* Spatula
Instructions:
1. Combine ingredients: In a large bowl, gently combine all the ingredients until just mixed. Avoid overworking the meat, as it can make the burgers tough.
2. Shape patties: Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions. Shape each portion into a patty about 1/2 inch thick.
3. Chill (optional): For a more firm burger, refrigerate the patties for 30 minutes before cooking.
4. Cook:
* Grilling: Preheat grill to medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates. Grill patties for 5-7 minutes per side, or until cooked through (internal temperature should reach 165°F).
* Pan-frying: Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add a tablespoon of oil to the skillet. Cook patties for 4-5 minutes per side, or until cooked through.
5. Serve: Top with your favorite burger toppings and enjoy!
Tips:
* Flavor: Experiment with different spices and seasonings to your liking. Try adding chili powder, paprika, cayenne pepper, or cumin for a spicy kick.
* Moisture: To ensure juicy burgers, don't overcook them. Use a meat thermometer to check for doneness.
* Breadcrumbs: Use gluten-free breadcrumbs if needed.
* Alternative: You can use ground chicken or a mix of ground turkey and ground chicken for a similar result.
