Ingredients

– 1 pound ground turkey (ideally 93% lean and 7% fat)

– 1 tablespoon mayonnaise

– 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard

– 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce (gluten-free option noted)

– 3 garlic cloves, minced

– 1 teaspoon kosher salt

– ยฝ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

– 2 tablespoons cooking oil for frying

Instructions

1-First, in a medium bowl, combine 1 pound of ground turkey (ideally 93% lean and 7% fat), 1 tablespoon mayonnaise, 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard, 1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce, 3 minced garlic cloves, 1 teaspoon kosher salt, and ยฝ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper. Mix everything well by hand to ensure even distribution.

2-Next, divide the mixture into 4 large patties, flattening them slightly to ensure they are not too thick or dense. This helps them cook evenly and stay juicy.

3-Then, heat 2 tablespoons of cooking oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, add the patties and cook for about 5 minutes per side until they are golden brown and fully cooked through, reaching an internal temperature of 165ยฐF.
