Turkey Burgers With Green Garlic and Parsley image

I'm even adding green garlic to my son's turkey burgers. The grated onion and abundance of green garlic add moisture as well as flavor to these burgers. Make sure not to press on them when you cook them, as turkey burgers can be dry - they need all the juice they've got.

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1/2 medium onion
1 bulb green garlic (about 4 ounces)
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
1/4 cup finely chopped flat-leaf parsley
1 1/4 pounds lean ground turkey
2 tablespoons ketchup
3/4 teaspoon salt
Freshly ground pepper to taste
4 hamburger buns, preferably whole-wheat (optional)
1 tablespoon canola, grapeseed or rice bran oil
Sliced tomato
sliced onion
Iceberg lettuce
pickles
sliced red pepper
ketchup and mustard

Steps:

  • Grate the onion on the medium holes of a grater. You should have about 2 tablespoons grated onion (and a lot of juice, which you can discard). Place in a bowl with the ground turkey, ketchup, salt and pepper.
  • Trim away the stalk from the garlic and remove the papery outer layers. Chop fine. Heat the olive oil over medium heat in a small skillet and add the garlic and a generous pinch of salt. Cook, stirring, until it is tender and fragrant, about 3 minutes. Stir in the parsley, remove from the heat and add to the turkey mixture. Using a fork, mix ingredients well. Shape into 4 patties without packing too hard.
  • Heat the canola, grapeseed or rice bran oil on a nonstick griddle or in a large nonstick frying pan over medium-high heat. When you can feel the heat when you hold your hand above it, cook the patties for 5 to 7 minutes on each side. Serve with the condiments of your choice.

These burgers were a bit bland for my taste. I think I might try adding some more spices next time, maybe some chili powder or cumin.

I tried these burgers with ground chicken, and they were amazing! The green garlic and parsley added so much flavor, and they were so moist and juicy. I'll definitely be making these again.

I made these burgers for my family, and they loved them! They said they were the best turkey burgers they've ever had. I'll definitely be making them again.

These burgers were really good! I made them with ground turkey breast, and they were still very juicy. I also added a bit of chopped sun-dried tomatoes for some extra flavor.

I've made these burgers several times now, and they're always a hit! I love that they're so easy to make and that they're a healthier alternative to beef burgers.

These burgers were delicious! I made them exactly as the recipe said, and they were perfect. I served them on whole wheat buns with lettuce, tomato, and avocado. Yum!

I'm a vegetarian, so I made these burgers with a plant-based turkey substitute. They were still really good! I think I might even prefer them to regular turkey burgers.

These burgers were so easy to make, and they turned out perfectly! I used a grill pan instead of a regular pan, and they got a nice crispy crust.

I made these burgers for a party, and they were a huge success! Everyone loved them. I even had some people ask for the recipe.

These burgers were a bit dry for my taste, but the flavor was good. I think I might try adding some more moisture next time, maybe some grated zucchini or applesauce.

I've made these burgers twice now, and they're always a hit! They're so moist and flavorful, and the green garlic and parsley really make them special. I've also tried them with ground beef, and they were just as good.

These burgers were easy to make and turned out great! I used ground chicken instead of turkey, and they were still delicious. I also added a bit of chopped red pepper for some extra flavor.

I'm not usually a fan of turkey burgers, but these were really good! The green garlic and parsley gave them a unique flavor that I really enjoyed, and they were cooked perfectly.
