PARMESAN CRUSTED MINI TURKEY BURGERS
I whipped these Parmesan Crusted Turkey Burgers based on how much I liked the breading found in another recipe on this site (Parmesan Crusted Tilapia: http://www.food.com/recipe/parmesan-crusted-tilapia-169764 ) My girlfriend and I enjoyed these so much, that I had to share them with the public!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Blend Parmesan Cheese, Bread Crumbs, Italian Seasoning, and Garlic Powder on a plate.
- Blend eggs and lemon juice together on a separate plate.
- Mold pieces of turkey into burger-like shapes.
- Dip each piece of turkey into the egg mixture.
- Flip the pieces of turkey, and dip other side into egg mixture.
- Put each piece of turkey on the bread crumb mixture.
- Flip the pieces of turkey, and put the other side onto the bread crumb mixture.
- Repeat steps 6-8 a second time, (it gets a little messy, but it will put a thicker coat on the burger.).
- Cover remaining bits of turkey with bread crumb mixture.
- Place covered pieces of turkey onto a baking rack, and place in oven.
- Cook for 35-45 minutes until outside is golden-brown.
- When your turkey is nearly cooked (within 5 minutes), Butter each bun, placing on a skillet set on medium-heat.
- Occasionally rotate the buns so that they are evenly cooked. Watch them closely, as they will burn fast if you're not careful. Continue to cook until the bottom-side of each bun is golden brown.
- Place slices of cheese on hot buns, put the turkey on the bun, add condiments of your choice (I personally recommend mayonnaise!), and enjoy!

- 4. Once meat is cooked, place on paper-towel lined plate to drain off any grease.
- 5. Place turkey patty on the heel of the roll, add a slice of cheese, tomato and lettuce. Add mayonnaise on crown of bun if desired.

Steps:
- In a large nonstick skillet heat oil over medium heat. Cook patties until browned and cooked through about 5 minutes per side. Serve on rolls with lettuce, tomatoes, ketchup and mustard if desired.
Tips:
- Use ground turkey breast: It's a leaner option that will help keep the burgers moist and flavorful.
- Add some vegetables: Finely chopped carrots, celery, or zucchini can add extra nutrition and moisture to the burgers.
- Use a flavorful breadcrumb mixture: Panko breadcrumbs, dried herbs, and grated Parmesan cheese will add a nice crust to the burgers.
- Don't overmix the meat: Overmixing will make the burgers tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Cook the burgers over medium heat: This will help prevent them from burning on the outside and staying raw on the inside.
- Let the burgers rest before serving: This will help the juices redistribute throughout the burgers, making them more tender and flavorful.

These mini turkey burgers are a delicious and healthy option for any meal. They're easy to make and can be customized to your liking. Whether you like them plain or topped with your favorite fixings, these burgers are sure to be a hit. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give these mini turkey burgers a try.
