Greek Turkey Burgers

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 420°F.

Step 2

Add all the ingredients to a large bowl and mix together thoroughly.

Step 3

Scoop out a large fistful of meat, roll it into a ball, then flatten it to form a patty around 1 ½ inches thick. Repeat with the remaining meat to make 5 large patties of equal size.

Step 4

Once the patties are formed, use your thumb to make a shallow indentation in the middle of each patty to prevent them from forming a dome as they cook.

Step 5

Set a large oven-safe nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and spray lightly with olive oil. When the skillet is hot, add the patties.

Step 6

Cook on one side for 3 to 4 minutes, until the edges are brown and seared, then flip the patties over.

Step 7

Cook for an additional minute, then place the entire skillet in the oven to cook until the internal temperature is 165°F, 9 to 11 minutes.

Step 8

You can also bake them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or aluminum foil for 8 to 10 minutes.

Step 9

Enjoy these as a burger with a toasted whole wheat bun, butter lettuce, cucumber slices, thin red onion slices (optional), sliced tomato, and a little Greek yogurt instead of mayo. Or pair a patty with salad, rice, quinoa, or even roasted vegetables!
