Last weekend, despite the not-so spring-like weather, we
brought out the grill! And I am glad that we did because I made these delicious
turkey burgers. I stopped eating beef almost four years ago now and I don’t
even miss it. Turkey burgers can end up being really dry, but by adding yogurt and mustard, they can turn out moist. Here is my version of the
turkey burger. Bring out that grill this weekend and enjoy these awesome
burgers. Serve with a pickle and a Spotted Cow!
Ingredients:
1 ½ pounds ground turkey
2 tbsp plain low fat yogurt
2 tsp worcestershire sauce
2 tbsp grainy mustard
1 tsp Kosher salt
Freshly ground pepper
4 hamburger buns (toasted)
Olive oil
Instructions:
Put some olive oil on a paper towel and rub it onto the
grates on the grill to prevent sticking.
Preheat grill to medium-high.
In a large bowl place the turkey, the yogurt, worcestershire
sauce, mustard, salt, and pepper.
Mix together with your hands. Since these burgers are wetter
than beef burgers, put some oil on your hands before you start mixing.
Divide the mixture evenly into 4 sections and form meatballs
and then flatten them out. Don’t flatten them too much, but don’t make them too
thick since they need to be cooked all the way through.
Grill on one side for 6 minutes and then flip and grill for
another 8-10 minutes.
For Serving:
Avocado (Squeese some lemon juice on it to prevent browning)
Lettuce (I used Bibb)
Tomato with salt and pepper sprinkled on it
Aioli
Aioli Recipe – In a small bowl, whisk 3 tbsp good mayo (I
used Hellman’s with olive oil), 1 minced garlic clove, ¼ tsp Kosher salt, and a
few light squeezes from ½ a lemon. Slowly add and whisk about 3 tbsp of olive
oil. Spread on the top burger bun. I love this stuff!
These make good leftovers too. Enjoy!
