  • Total Time: 22 minutes
  • Yield: 4 servings 1x

Ingredients

Units Scale
  • 1 lb ground turkey (93% lean)
  • 1/2 cup grated onion
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup panko or breadcrumbs
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 tbsp Dijon mustard (optional)
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp black pepper
  • 1/2 tsp smoked paprika
  • Pinch of chili flakes (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat the grill to medium heat.
  2. Add ground turkey, grated onion, garlic, breadcrumbs, egg, Worcestershire, Dijon, salt, pepper, and smoked paprika to a bowl. Mix gently just until combined.
  3. Shape the mixture into 4-6 patties, making a small dip in the center of each.
  4. Oil the grill grates using tongs and a paper towel.
  5. Place patties on the grill and cook for about 5-6 minutes per side.
  6. Check doneness, ensuring the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
  7. Add cheese in the last minute of cooking, if desired.
  8. Rest the patties for a couple of minutes before serving.

Notes

Do not overmix the patties to prevent them from being tough. Allow them to rest after cooking for juiciness.
