Make your next burger a healthy turkey burger.
Beef hamburgers are a classic American dish, well known at almost every family table. While these burgers are tasty, the ground beef they are made from can be high in fat. Change up your menu to a healthier ground meat by serving turkey burgers for your family. You'll still have the ground meat patty texture with toppings on a bun, but the turkey meat burger will be much lower in fat. Add this to my Recipe Box.
Instructions
1. Mix in 1 lb. of ground turkey meat with any flavorings your family enjoys. Ground turkey is very lean, so it tends to be drier than ground beef. Add onions, peppers, mushrooms, steak sauce or any other juicy and flavorful ingredient that you wish.
2. Form the ground turkey mix into patties with your hands. If you are making regular-sized burgers, make four patties from 1 lb. of ground turkey meat mixture.
3. Rub your broiler rack with vegetable oil or spray it with vegetable oil cooking spray. Place the burgers on the oiled rack and put it into the oven, 4 inches from the broiler heat.
4. Cook the burgers for about 7 minutes, then turn them over and broil them for another 7 minutes. Check the internal temperature after the second broiling time. If the inside of the burger measures at least 165 degrees Fahrenheit, your turkey burgers are done.
