Turkey Burger with Feta and Spinach Recipe

American · Main course · 27 min total

Juicy turkey burgers packed with salty feta and fresh spinach, perfect for a quick and healthy weeknight dinner.

Ingredients

• 1 lb ground turkey (93% lean)
• 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese
• 1 cup fresh spinach, chopped
• 1/4 cup breadcrumbs
• 1 large egg, lightly beaten
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 4 hamburger buns
• Optional toppings: lettuce, tomato, red onion, tzatziki sauce

Instructions

1. In a large bowl, combine ground turkey, feta cheese, chopped spinach, breadcrumbs, beaten egg, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix gently until just combined; do not overmix.
2. Divide mixture into 4 equal portions and shape into patties about 3/4-inch thick. Make a slight indentation in the center of each patty to prevent bulging during cooking.
3. Heat a grill or non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Lightly oil the grill grates or skillet.
4. Cook patties for 5-6 minutes per side, or until internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
5. During the last minute of cooking, toast the buns on the grill or in the skillet.
6. Assemble burgers: place patties on buns and add desired toppings. Serve immediately.

Tips

• For extra moisture, add 1 tablespoon of olive oil or grated zucchini to the mixture.
• These burgers can be cooked on an outdoor grill, stovetop griddle, or in the oven at 400°F for 15-18 minutes.
• Leftover patties can be refrigerated for up to 3 days or frozen for up to 3 months.
