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.

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.

These burgers were a bit too dry for my taste. I think I'll try adding some more moisture next time, maybe some grated zucchini or applesauce.

I made these burgers in the air fryer and they turned out great! They were cooked perfectly and they were so juicy.

These burgers were a bit too spicy for my taste. I think I'll use less chili powder next time.

These burgers were a bit too greasy for my taste. I think I'll try draining the ground turkey more thoroughly next time.

I made these burgers with ground chicken instead of turkey and they were still delicious.

These burgers were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll try adding some more spices next time.

I'm not a huge fan of turkey burgers, but these were actually really good. The green garlic and parsley added a lot of flavor.

These burgers were really easy to make and they cooked up perfectly. I served them on whole wheat buns with lettuce, tomato, and avocado. They were delicious!

I found the flavor of the green garlic to be a bit overpowering. I think I'll use less of it next time.

I made these burgers a little smaller and cooked them on a griddle. They were perfect for sliders!
