Ingredients

  • 1 egg (lightly beaten)
  • Fresh parsley, chopped (about 2 tablespoons)
  • Worcestershire sauce, to taste, two teaspoons
  • 1/2 tsp. of dried garlic
  • Onion powder, half a teaspoon (minced)
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1/4 tsp. pepper
  • Oil, either olive or vegetable
  • 1 pound of minced turkey. (For cooking)

Instructions

  • The egg, parsley, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper should all be combined in a big dish. With a fork, mix the ingredients.
  • Add the ground turkey to the bowl and stir with a fork just until combined, taking care not to overwork the flesh.
  • Make four equal amounts of the turkey mixture into patties that are 1/2 inch thick.

Grilled Turkey Burger

  • You should freeze the patties for about 30 minutes before grilling because turkey is typically more fragile than beef. Place the patties in a baking dish lined with parchment paper, one layer thick, and refrigerate.
  • Make sure the barbecue is heated to a medium-high temperature and that the grates are clean. Grill grates should be well-oiled to avoid adhering.
  • Your Barefoot Contessa Turkey Burgers should be heated through after 6 minutes on each side of the grill.

Skillet Turkey Burger

  • One spoonful of olive oil or other cooking oil should be added to your skillet or grill pan while it is heating up on medium heat.
  • The patties should be cooked through after 5 to 6 minutes on each side. To ensure that they cook thoroughly without over-browning, I typically place a lid on the skillet while they cook on the first side.

Baked Turkey Burger

  • To avoid sticking and to make cleaning simpler, line your baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Turkey burgers should be baked for about 20 minutes, or until they hit 165 degrees F, in a 400°F oven.
  • Flip the patties to the other side after the first 10 minutes of cooking.
