Ingredients

• 1 pound ground turkey
• 0.25 cup bread crumbs
• 0.25 cup red onion
• 2 cloves garlic cloves
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 tablespoon olive oil
• 4 pieces brioche buns
• 4 pieces lettuce leaves
• 1 large tomato
• 4 slices cheddar cheese slices

Directions

Step 1

Finely chop the red onion and garlic cloves.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey, bread crumbs, chopped red onion, minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and black pepper. Mix until fully incorporated.

Step 3

Divide the turkey mixture into 4 equal portions and form each into a patty about 1/2 inch thick.

Step 4

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the turkey patties to the skillet.

Step 5

Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).

Step 6

If using cheese, place a slice of cheddar cheese on each patty during the last minute of cooking. Cover the skillet to melt the cheese.

Step 7

While the patties are cooking, slice the tomato.

Step 8

Toast the brioche buns in the oven or on a griddle if desired.

Step 9

Assemble the burgers by placing a lettuce leaf on the bottom half of each toasted bun, followed by a turkey patty, sliced tomato, and top with the other half of the bun.

Step 10

Serve the burgers immediately while warm.
