The Best Juicy Turkey Burgers You’ll Ever Make
These turkey burgers are incredibly moist, packed with flavor, and anything but boring. A few smart ingredients make them tender and juicy—perfect for grilling, pan-frying, or meal prepping for the week.
🍴 Ingredients (Serves 4)
- 1 lb ground turkey (preferably 93% lean)
- 1/4 cup grated onion
- 2 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 1 garlic clove, minced
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 4 burger buns, toasted
- Toppings: lettuce, tomato, red onion, pickles, cheese, condiments of your choice
🔥 Instructions
Mix the Patties:
In a mixing bowl, gently combine the ground turkey, grated onion, mayonnaise, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, salt, and pepper. Mix just until combined—don’t overwork it.
Form and Chill:
Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and form into patties. Place them on a plate and refrigerate for at least 15–20 minutes to firm up.
Cook the Burgers:
Heat a grill or skillet over medium heat. Lightly oil the surface and cook the patties for 5–6 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F. Add cheese in the last minute of cooking if desired.
Assemble and Serve:
Place the cooked turkey burgers on toasted buns. Add your favorite toppings and serve immediately.
