Ingredients

• 1 pound Ground turkey
• 0.5 cup Breadcrumbs
• 1 large Egg
• 2 cloves Garlic, minced
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Smoked paprika
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil
• 4 pieces Burger buns
• 4 pieces Lettuce leaves
• 1 medium Tomato, sliced
• 0.25 cup Red onion, thinly sliced

Directions

Step 1

In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey, breadcrumbs, egg, minced garlic, Worcestershire sauce, Dijon mustard, chopped parsley, salt, black pepper, and smoked paprika.

Step 2

Gently mix the ingredients together with your hands or a spoon until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the burgers tough.

Step 3

Divide the turkey mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each portion into a patty about 1/2 inch thick. Make a slight indentation in the center of each patty with your thumb to prevent them from puffing up while cooking.

Step 4

Heat olive oil in a large skillet or grill pan over medium heat. Alternatively, preheat your grill to medium-high heat and lightly grease the grates.

Step 5

Cook the turkey patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) as measured with a meat thermometer.

Step 6

While the patties are cooking, lightly toast the burger buns 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, some red onion, and the top half of the bun.

Step 8

Serve immediately with your favorite sides like sweet potato fries, coleslaw, or a simple green salad.
