  • 1 pound lean ground turkey
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • 1 1/2 Tablespoons ketchup
  • 1 Tablespoon Dijon mustard
  • 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
  • ¾ teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon freshly ground pepper

Directions

  1. 1

    Mix together:To a mixing bowl add turkey, garlic powder, onion powder, ketchup, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, salt and pepper, egg and breadcrumbs. Using a fork, mix together—try not to mix it too much.

  2. 2

    Shape into 4 patties about ½ inch thick— they will be really moist.

  3. 3

    Use your thumb to make a depression in the center of each patty. If grilling, place the patties on a parchment lined plate and freeze for 20 minutes.

  4. 4

    Skillet: Heat the canola oil in a nonstick griddle or large nonstick frying pan over medium-high heat. (Or spray generously with non-stick cooking spray). Once hot, cook the patties for 4-5 minutes on each side.

  5. 5

    Grill: Freeze the patties for 20 minutes before grilling (this will help the hold their shape.) Grill for a few minutes on each side, until cooked through.

  6. 6

    Oven: Bake at 375 F for 25-30 minutes. Then sear on a hot pan for 2 minutes on each side.

  7. 7

    Serve on buns, with the condiments of your choice.
