Juicy Turkey Veggie Burgers Recipes

Steps:

• Heat the olive oil over medium heat in a medium skillet and add the onion. Cook, stirring, until it begins to soften, about 3 minutes, and add the diced red pepper and a generous pinch of salt. Cook, stirring often, until the vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes. Stir in the garlic and the grated carrot and cook, stirring, for another minute or two, until the carrots have softened slightly and the mixture is fragrant. Remove from the heat.
• In a large bowl, mash the ground turkey with a fork. Add about ¾ teaspoon kosher salt if desired, and mix in the barbecue sauce, ketchup, and freshly ground pepper to taste. Add the sautéed vegetables and mix together well. Shape into 6 patties, about ¾-inch thick. Chill for 1 hour if possible to facilitate handling.
• Heat a nonstick griddle or a large nonstick frying pan over medium-high heat and brush with a small amount of canola oil, or prepare a medium-hot grill. When you can feel the heat when you hold your hand above it, cook the patties for 4 minutes on each side. Serve on whole grain buns, with the condiments of your choice.

Steps:

• In a large bowl, combine the first 10 ingredients. Crumble turkey over mixture and mix well. Shape into six 1/2-in.-thick patties., Lightly grease grill rack. Prepare grill for indirect heat., Grill burgers, covered, over indirect medium heat or broil 4 in. from the heat for 6-7 minutes on each side or until a thermometer reads 165° and juices run clear. Sprinkle with parsley. Serve on buns with lettuce and tomato.

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl, add all ingredients. Mix together using your hands until ingredients are barely combined (be sure to not overmix because then the hamburgers will become dense).
• Form the mixture into 8 patties. Be sure to make them a little larger than the patties that you plan to use because ground beef shrinks when it cooks.
• Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.
• Lightly oil the grill grate and place patties on top of grill.
• Grill patties until no longer pink on the inside or until they reach desired doneness (I usually grill mine for about 5 minutes on each side).
• Place cooked burger on a hamburger bun and top with favorite toppings.

Steps:

• Sauté the scallions, celery and apples in the canola oil until tender. Let cool.
• Place the ground turkey in a large mixing bowl. Add sautéed items and the remaining ingredients. Shape into eight 8-ounce burgers. Refrigerate for 2 hours.
• Season the turkey burgers with salt and pepper. Place on a preheated, lightly oiled grill. Grill each side for 7 minutes until meat is thoroughly cooked. Let sit for 5 minutes.
