Turkey Burger
The best turkey burger recipe with lean ground turkey and plenty of spices and flavourings. In my opinion, these turkey burgers are just as delicious as their beef counterparts, and they take just minutes to make. I use ground turkey a lot in cooking, it's a versatile and healthy protein option. My favourite recipes that include ground turkey are slow cooker turkey chili, turkey meatballs and these fabulous turkey burgers.
1½ lbs ground turkey (93% lean)
2 Tbsp. Italian seasoned breadcrumbs
1 egg
¾ tsp. sea salt
¼ tsp. black pepper, freshly cracked
1 tsp. garlic, minced
1 Tbsp. Worcestershire sauce
2 tsp. Dijon mustard
2 Tbsp. fresh parsley leaves, chopped
1 Tbsp. vegetable oil
4 hamburger buns
To Serve:

Place the ground turkey, breadcrumbs, egg, salt, pepper, garlic, Worcestershire sauce, mustard and parsley in a bowl. Stir to combine.
Shape the meat mixture into 4 patties. Brush the vegetable oil all over the patties.
Preheat an outdoor grill, indoor grill pan or skillet on the stove to medium high heat.
Add the burgers and cook for 5-6 minutes per side, or until completely cooked through.
Place the burgers on the buns, add toppings as desired, then serve.
