Easy Ground Turkey Burgers Recipe

Step 1

Oil and pre-heat your grill to high heat.

Step 2

Chop the chives and parsley, and prepare your toppings (tomato, onion, lettuce, etc.).

Step 3

In a medium to large bowl, add the ground turkey, chives, parsley, minced garlic, lemon juice, breadcrumbs, mayo, and salt & pepper. Using your hands, gently mix everything together, taking care to not over handle the mixture.

Step 4

Form burger patties one by one and place them on a sheet of wax paper. You should be able to make six small to average-size burger patties or four larger ones. Using your thumb, create a depression in the center of each patty so they cook evenly. Patties will be quite delicate.

Step 5

Turn the grill down to medium-high heat. Cook the burger patties until their internal temperature is at least 165F. Cooking time really depends on your grill and the thickness of the patties. Mine took about 5 minutes/side (made 4 patties).

Step 6

Once the burgers are cooked, you can toast the buns for about 20-30 seconds on each side if desired (we did this right on the grill after buttering them).

Step 7

Assemble burgers and enjoy!
