Ground Turkey
Onion
Tart Apple
Salt
Pepper
Tarragon
Sage

Steps:

  • Combine ground turkey with finely chopped onion, diced tart apples, salt and pepper, and a few leaves of chopped fresh tarragon or sage; grill or pan-cook. Serve on a hamburger bun with arugula or other salad green and a smear of Dijon mustard to amp up the flavor even further.

Tips:

  • Choose the right ground turkey. Look for ground turkey that is at least 85% lean. This will help to ensure that your burgers are moist and flavorful.
  • Don't overwork the ground turkey. When you mix the ingredients together, be gentle and don't overwork the meat. This will help to keep the burgers tender.
  • Use a variety of seasonings. Don't be afraid to experiment with different seasonings to find a combination that you like. Some popular options include salt, pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and cumin.
  • Add some moisture. If you find that your burgers are too dry, you can add some moisture by mixing in a little bit of milk, broth, or egg.
  • Cook the burgers over medium heat. This will help to prevent them from drying out. If you are using a grill, cook the burgers over indirect heat.
  • Let the burgers rest before serving. This will help the juices to redistribute and make the burgers more flavorful.
