CILANTRO TURKEY BURGERS

Steps:

• Add all ingredients EXCEPT THE OLIVE OIL to a large bowl. Use your hands to combine ingredients.
• Form into four patties. If you're not grilling immediately place the patties on a plate and cover with plastic wrap in the refrigerator. (Ground turkey is very soft and it will firm up the refrigerator. Don't let it sit out any longer than necessary.)
• Heat the grill to medium-high heat.
• Brush olive oil on both sides of each burger. Gently place each patty on the grill.
• Sear until brown, about 5 to 6 minutes. Do not flip your burger too early or it will fall apart. When it's sufficiently browned on one side, flip. Sear remaining side until browned and patty is cooked through, another 5 to 6 minutes. Remove from the grill and serve!
