Lean turkey dries out fast, so these patties get grated onion, a little mayonnaise and Dijon for moisture and flavor. Press a shallow dimple in each patty so they cook flat. Cook to a true 165°F, but not much past it.
Ingredients
Serves 4
Directions
- Combine the turkey, onion, breadcrumbs, mayonnaise, mustard, Worcestershire, salt, pepper and garlic powder. Mix gently until just combined.
- Divide into 4 patties about 3/4 inch thick and press a shallow dimple in the center of each. Chill 10 minutes.
- Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Cook the patties 5 to 6 minutes without pressing, until browned.
- Flip and cook 5 to 6 minutes more, until a thermometer in the center reads 165°F (74°C). Add cheese in the last minute and cover to melt.
- Rest 3 minutes, then serve on toasted buns.
Tips and make-ahead notes
- Don't press the patties with a spatula.
- Form the patties a day ahead; separate with parchment.
- Grill over medium heat for the same time.
