Ingredients Needed
- 450g ground turkey thighs (93% lean)
- 1 tbsp mayonnaise
- 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
- 1 tsp Diamond Crystal kosher salt (or ½ tsp of any other salt)
- ¼ tsp black pepper
- 1 tsp garlic powder
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 1 tsp smoked paprika
- ½ cup (15g) fresh parsley, chopped
- 4 tbsp olive oil (for frying)
How To Make Turkey Burger
- Mix the ingredients: In a medium bowl, combine the ground turkey, mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, and chopped parsley.
- Shape the burger: With moist hands for easier handling, form the mixture into four ½-inch-thick (1.25 cm) burger.
- Heat the oil: In a large frying pan, heat the olive oil over medium heat.
- Cook the burger: Add the burger and cook until golden brown and cooked through, about 5 minutes per side.
- Serve immediately: Enjoy hot with your favourite sides.
Recipe Tips
- Use moist hands to shape burger: Wet your hands slightly before forming the burger to prevent the mixture from sticking and make even shapes.
- Don’t press the burger while cooking: Pressing down with a spatula can squeeze out juices, making the burger dry instead of juicy.
- Cook on medium heat for even browning: Too high heat can burn the outside before the inside is fully cooked. Medium heat ensures a golden crust and tender inside.
- Let the burger rest for a few minutes: Allow them to sit for 2-3 minutes after cooking to lock in the juices and keep them moist.
- Use fresh parsley for better flavour: Dried parsley won’t give the same fresh taste. If you don’t have parsley, try fresh coriander or basil.
How To Store & Reheat Leftovers
- Refrigerate: Place leftover turkey burger in an airtight container and store them in the fridge for up to 3 days.
- Freeze: Wrap leftover turkey burger individually in cling film or foil, then place them in a freezer bag. Store them for up to 3 months. To use, thaw in the fridge overnight before reheating in a pan or oven.
- Reheating: Reheat leftover turkey burger in a pan for 3-4 minutes per side, reeat at 350°F for 10-12 minutes, or microwave for 1-2 minutes on 50% power.
