Steps:
- Combine turkey, parsley, Worcestershire, Dijon, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Cover; refrigerate 20 minutes. Stir together yogurt, lemon juice, and zest; season with salt and pepper.
- Set a steamer basket in a wide pot containing 1 inch water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to medium. Form turkey mixture into eight 1/2-inch-thick patties. Steam, covered, until a thermometer inserted into patties reads 165 degrees, 3 to 5 minutes. Transfer to a plate; pat dry. Heat a large skillet over high; swirl in oil. Sear burgers, flipping once, until golden, about 2 minutes total. Cook breads over an open burner or under the broiler, turning occasionally, until charred in spots, 30 seconds. Spread with hummus; top each with 2 patties, cucumber, arugula, and parsley leaves. Drizzle with sauce and oil, season with salt and pepper, and serve.
GREEK TURKEY BURGERS
Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 420°F.
- Add all the ingredients to a large bowl and mix together thoroughly.
- Scoop out a large fistful of meat, roll it into a ball, then flatten it to form a patty around 1 ½ inches thick. Repeat with the remaining meat to make 5 large patties of equal size.
- Once the patties are formed, use your thumb to make a shallow indentation in the middle of each patty to prevent them from forming a dome as they cook.
- Set a large oven-safe nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and spray lightly with olive oil. When the skillet is hot, add the patties.
- Cook on one side for 3 to 4 minutes, until the edges are brown and seared, then flip the patties over.
- Cook for an additional minute, then place the entire skillet in the oven to cook until the internal temperature is 165°F, 9 to 11 minutes.
- You can also bake them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or aluminum foil for 8 to 10 minutes.
- Enjoy these as a burger with a toasted whole wheat bun, butter lettuce, cucumber slices, thin red onion slices (optional), sliced tomato, and a little Greek yogurt instead of mayo. Or pair a patty with salad, rice, quinoa, or even roasted vegetables!
