Recipe 10 - Grilled Parmesan Turkey Burgers

This recipe I found from bettycrocker.com, but I changed it a decent amount.

1 lb ground turkey
1/3 cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives
1/4 teaspoon pepper
1/8 teaspoon salt
4 hamburger buns, split

I started with a pound of ground turkey meat, put it in a bow with the salt, pepper, and parmesan cheese (I didn't want to buy chives) and mixed it thoroughly with mah hands. I also added dashes of red pepper flakes, parsley flakes, and seasoned salt for extra flavor.


I then pulled balls of meat apart and smushed them into patties, about 3/4 inch thick. Here is a cool trick: if you make the center of the patty a little thinner than the outsides, it will cook evenly. =] They cooked for about 6-8 minutes on the grill (flipped occasionally) before they seemed to be done. The inside temperature should be about 165 degrees when they are fully cooked.



Lastly, I garnished them with honey mustard, mozzarella cheese, and diced tomatoes on a hamburger bun. DELICIOSO!


This recipe was really easy, and absolutely amazing. I really like turkey burgers, but adding the parmesan cheese and spices into the meat was just brilliant. SO GOOD SO GOOD. It made four burgers, and one mini one.
