Notes

Ingredients

For the turkey burgers
  • 1 pound 93% lean ground turkey
  • 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
Optional toppings and extras
  • Cheddar cheese slices
  • Sliced tomato
  • Sliced onion
  • Caramelized onion
  • Pickles
  • Lettuce
  • Ketchup, mustard, and mayonnaise
 

Instructions

  1. Prepare the patties
    Place the ground turkey, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, salt, and pepper into a medium bowl. Mix gently with your hands until evenly combined. Divide the mixture into four equal portions and shape into large patties.
  2. Cook the burgers
    Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the patties and cook for about 5 minutes per side, until nicely browned and fully cooked through.
  3. Serve
    Enjoy the turkey patties on their own or build burgers with your preferred toppings and condiments.
 
Helpful Tip
  • Cooking these burgers over medium heat helps them cook evenly and stay juicy. A non-stick skillet can make flipping the patties easier, especially since the temperature stays moderate.
