TURKEY BURGER



Turkey Burger image

Provided by Anne Burrell

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

Extra-virgin olive oil
1 onion, cut into 1/4-inch dice
Kosher salt
2 cloves garlic, smashed and finely chopped
1 1/2 pounds ground turkey
1/4 cup soy sauce
1 tablespoon sambal oelek, optional
1-inch piece fresh ginger, peeled and grated
One 8-ounce can water chestnuts, drained and coarsely chopped
1/2 bunch fresh cilantro leaves, finely chopped
4 slices Cheddar
4 seeded burger buns
1/4 cup mayo mixed with 2 teaspoons sambal oelek
4 slices beefsteak tomatoes
4 slices raw red onion
Butter lettuce

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F to keep the first batch of burgers warm.
  • For the burgers: Coat a large saute pan with olive oil. Add the onions, season with salt and bring to a medium-high heat. Cook the onions until they are soft and very aromatic, 7 to 8 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 1 to 2 minutes. Turn off the heat and let cool.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the turkey, soy sauce, sambal oelek, ginger, water chestnuts, cilantro and the cooked onions and garlic. (Reserve the onion pan to cook the burgers in later.) Add one-quarter to one-half cup water; this will help the burgers stay nice and moist. Using your hands, squish everything together until they are really well combined.
  • Make and cook a little tester patty to be sure that the turkey is really well seasoned. Re-season if needed. If the burger is missing salt add more soy or just give a little sprinkey dink of salt.
  • When the burger mix is seasoned appropriately, form the mix into 4 equal size patties.
  • Coat the saute pan with new olive oil and bring to a medium-high heat. Place the burgers in the pan. Be sure not to crowd the pan, if you need to work in batches go ahead! Cook the burgers for 5 to 6 minutes on each side. Place the cheese, if using, on the burger and cook for 1 more minute.
  • Toast the buns in a broiler or toaster. Schmear each side of the bun lightly with the sambaal mayo. Put a burger on each of the bottom buns and top each burger with tomato, onion and lettuce. Close up each burger, give each one a little squish and eat em' up!

TURKEY AND VEGETABLE BURGERS



Turkey and Vegetable Burgers image

The vegetables in this turkey burger mixture not only contribute lots of vitamins A and C and micronutrients like the carotenoids lutein and zeaxanthin, which have been linked to eye health, but they also help to moisten burgers that can otherwise be quite dry. Make sure to buy lean ground turkey breast.

Categories     dinner, easy, weekday, burgers, main course

Time 30m

Yield 6 burgers

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1/2 cup finely diced onion
1/2 cup finely diced red bell pepper
Salt to taste
1 large garlic clove, green shoot removed, minced
2/3 cup finely grated carrot (1 large carrot)
1 1/4 pounds lean ground turkey breast, preferably organic, from humanely raised turkeys
1 tablespoon prepared barbecue sauce
1 tablespoon ketchup
Freshly ground pepper to taste
Canola oil for the skillet
Whole grain hamburger buns
condiments of your choice

Steps:

  • Heat the olive oil over medium heat in a medium skillet and add the onion. Cook, stirring, until it begins to soften, about 3 minutes, and add the diced red pepper and a generous pinch of salt. Cook, stirring often, until the vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes. Stir in the garlic and the grated carrot and cook, stirring, for another minute or two, until the carrots have softened slightly and the mixture is fragrant. Remove from the heat.
  • In a large bowl, mash the ground turkey with a fork. Add about ¾ teaspoon kosher salt if desired, and mix in the barbecue sauce, ketchup, and freshly ground pepper to taste. Add the sautéed vegetables and mix together well. Shape into 6 patties, about ¾-inch thick. Chill for 1 hour if possible to facilitate handling.
  • Heat a nonstick griddle or a large nonstick frying pan over medium-high heat and brush with a small amount of canola oil, or prepare a medium-hot grill. When you can feel the heat when you hold your hand above it, cook the patties for 4 minutes on each side. Serve on whole grain buns, with the condiments of your choice.

TURKEY BURGERS WITH GREEN GARLIC AND PARSLEY



Turkey Burgers With Green Garlic and Parsley image

I'm even adding green garlic to my son's turkey burgers. The grated onion and abundance of green garlic add moisture as well as flavor to these burgers. Make sure not to press on them when you cook them, as turkey burgers can be dry - they need all the juice they've got.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     dinner, weekday, burgers, main course

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1/2 medium onion
1 bulb green garlic (about 4 ounces)
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1/4 cup finely chopped flat-leaf parsley
1 1/4 pounds lean ground turkey
2 tablespoons ketchup
3/4 teaspoon salt
Freshly ground pepper to taste
4 hamburger buns, preferably whole-wheat (optional)
1 tablespoon canola, grapeseed or rice bran oil
Sliced tomato
sliced onion
Iceberg lettuce
pickles
sliced red pepper
ketchup and mustard

Steps:

  • Grate the onion on the medium holes of a grater. You should have about 2 tablespoons grated onion (and a lot of juice, which you can discard). Place in a bowl with the ground turkey, ketchup, salt and pepper.
  • Trim away the stalk from the garlic and remove the papery outer layers. Chop fine. Heat the olive oil over medium heat in a small skillet and add the garlic and a generous pinch of salt. Cook, stirring, until it is tender and fragrant, about 3 minutes. Stir in the parsley, remove from the heat and add to the turkey mixture. Using a fork, mix ingredients well. Shape into 4 patties without packing too hard.
  • Heat the canola, grapeseed or rice bran oil on a nonstick griddle or in a large nonstick frying pan over medium-high heat. When you can feel the heat when you hold your hand above it, cook the patties for 5 to 7 minutes on each side. Serve with the condiments of your choice.

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh garlic and onion will give your turkey burgers the best flavor. If you don't have fresh garlic or onion on hand, you can use dried garlic or onion powder, but the flavor will be less intense.
  • Don't overmix the turkey: Overmixing the turkey will make the burgers tough. Mix the ingredients just until they are combined.
  • Cook the burgers over medium heat: This will help to prevent them from drying out. Cook the burgers for about 8 minutes per side, or until they are cooked through.
  • Let the burgers rest before serving: This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the burgers, making them more flavorful.
  • Serve the burgers on your favorite bun with your favorite toppings: Some popular toppings include lettuce, tomato, onion, and cheese.

Conclusion:

Garlic onion turkey burgers are a delicious and healthy alternative to traditional beef burgers. They are easy to make and can be cooked in a variety of ways. Whether you grill them, pan-fry them, or bake them, garlic onion turkey burgers are sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
