Instructions

For the Turkey Patties:

  • In a medium-size mixing bowl, combine all turkey patty ingredients (everything except canola oil). Gently mix the ingredients until incorporated. Divide the mixture into 4 equal parts and shape each part into a ¼-½ inch patty (depending on preference).
    1 pound lean ground turkey, 1 tablespoon Worcestershire Sauce, 2 tablespoons ketchup, ¾ teaspoon seasoned salt or kosher salt, ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • Heat a large nonstick skillet or griddle over medium heat. When hot, add the oil. When the oil is hot (shimmers), carefully place the patties in the pan/griddle and cook them 4-5 minutes per side, or until golden brown and slightly seared on each side. A meat thermometer inserted in the middle of each patty should read 160°F.
    1 tablespoon canola oil
  • Serve on buns and with your favorite toppings and condiments.
    4 hamburger buns, Sliced fresh tomato, Thinly sliced red or white onion, Lettuce, Dill or Sweet Pickles, Ketchup, Mustard, Mayonnaise
