It's November, the official turkey-eating month (I might have made that up). To celebrate all things turkey, I made some delicious turkey burgers! I topped them with a sharp and nutty cheese and avocado slices, all on a brioche bun. I'm so fancay ;)
Serves 4
1 lb ground turkey
1 clove chopped garlic
1 small onion, minced
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp black pepper
1/4 tsp thyme
1 egg
4 burger buns, toasted
optional:
your favorite cheese, sliced
1/2 avocado, sliced
lettuce leaves
tomatoes
dijon mustard
In a medium mixing bowl, combine turkey, garlic, onion, seasonings, and egg until well incorporated. Form the mixture into 4 patties. Heat a frying pan on high heat with enough olive oil to coat the pan. Place patties in the pan and cook on medium high heat for about 5 minutes on each side, depending on how thick your patties are. The middle should be 165F when fully cooked.
Place cheese slices on top of patties in the last minute of cooking to melt. Place patties on toasted buns and garnish with your desired toppings.
