Juicy Turkey Burgers
"With just 5 ingredients and about 20 minutes, you can serve these juicy and flavorful Turkey Burgers for a healthy dinner any night of the week! The burgers can be prepared on a grill, in a skillet, or under the broiler for a convenient and family-friendly option on busy days. I live in a house full of classic beef hamburger-lovin' men. So while I've always enjoyed a good turkey burger, I knew that I had my work cut out for me when I decided to tackle homemade turkey burgers for my 4 boys. Let me just get straight to the point: after testing a few different recipes, adjusting seasonings, and running the options by my crew, I can confidently say that these turkey burgers are 100% approved by every single one of the guys in my house. They were even devoured by the 4-year-old who thinks that a McDonald's fast food hamburger is fine dining! So while they might be light and healthy, they certainly do NOT taste like diet food!"
NotesNote: This recipe yields 4 relatively small burgers, which I often serve on "slider" buns. If you're feeding a larger family (such as a family of 5 like mine), I suggest doubling the ingredients to prepare 8 small patties. They will disappear fast, and they freeze or keep in the refrigerator really well as leftovers.
To Prepare in Advance: You can shape the patties ahead of time and keep them on a tray (or plate) lined with waxed paper, covered, in the refrigerator overnight. You can also freeze individual patties if you prefer.
To Cook in Advance: If you want to cook the patties in advance (or if you just have leftovers), the cooked burgers keep really well in the refrigerator for at least 3 days. Alternatively, you can wrap the cooked burgers tightly in plastic wrap and foil and keep them in the freezer for up to 3 months.
To Reheat the Cooked Burgers: Microwave a refrigerated, cooked burger on high for about 1 minute.
