Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground turkey
- 2 tablespoons Jerk seasoning
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 2 stalks Green onions, finely chopped
- 0.25 cup Breadcrumbs
- 1 large Egg
- 1 tablespoon Soy sauce
- 2 teaspoons Fresh lime juice
- 1 tablespoon Vegetable oil
- 4 pieces Burger buns
- 4 pieces Lettuce leaves
- 1 large Tomato, sliced
- 0.5 medium Red onion, sliced
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey, jerk seasoning, minced garlic, chopped green onions, breadcrumbs, and egg.
Step 2
Add the soy sauce and lime juice to the mixture. Mix thoroughly with your hands or a spoon until all the ingredients are evenly incorporated.
Step 3
Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each into a burger patty about 1 inch thick.
Step 4
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or grill pan over medium heat. If using an outdoor grill, preheat it to medium-high heat and lightly oil the grill grates.
Step 5
Cook the turkey burgers for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C). Avoid pressing down on the burgers while cooking to retain their juices.
Step 6
Toast the burger buns lightly on the grill or in a toaster if desired.
Step 7
Assemble the burgers by placing a lettuce leaf on the bottom half of each bun, followed by a cooked turkey patty, a slice of tomato, and a few slices of red onion.
Step 8
Top with the other half of the bun and serve immediately. Enjoy your Jerk Style Turkey Burgers with your favorite side dish!
