Turkey Burger with Avocado Recipe

American · Main course · 27 min total

Juicy turkey burgers topped with creamy avocado and fresh toppings, perfect for a healthier twist on a classic burger.

Ingredients

• 1 lb ground turkey (93% lean)
• 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
• 1/4 cup finely chopped onion
• 1 clove garlic, minced
• 1 large egg, lightly beaten
• 1 tsp salt
• 1/2 tsp black pepper
• 1 tbsp olive oil
• 4 hamburger buns, split and toasted
• 1 ripe avocado, sliced
• 4 lettuce leaves
• 4 slices tomato
• Optional: ketchup, mustard, or mayo

Instructions

1. In a large bowl, combine ground turkey, breadcrumbs, onion, garlic, egg, salt, and pepper. Mix gently until just combined; do not overmix.
2. Divide mixture into 4 equal portions and shape into 1/2-inch-thick patties. Make a slight indentation in the center of each patty to prevent puffing.
3. Heat olive oil in a large skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Cook patties for 5-6 minutes per side, or until internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
4. During the last minute of cooking, place buns cut-side down on the skillet to toast lightly.
5. Assemble burgers: place lettuce on bottom bun, top with turkey patty, avocado slices, tomato, and any desired condiments. Cover with top bun.

Tips

• For extra flavor, add 1 tsp Worcestershire sauce or dried herbs to the turkey mixture.
• To prevent sticking, ensure the pan is hot before adding patties.
• Leftover patties can be refrigerated for up to 3 days or frozen for up to 3 months.
