Wendys Grilled Juicy Turkey Burgers Recipes

JUICY TURKEY BURGERS

Steps:

• In a mixing bowl, gently knead together turkey, olive oil, Worcestershire sauce, salt, and pepper. Don't overwork the meat.
• Form into patties about 1/4 to 1/2 inch thick. Press your thumb down on the middle to give it a slight indent.
• Heat a large heavy skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. Or, heat an outdoor grill to medium-high heat (400-450 degrees F). Make sure the grate is well oiled so the meat doesn't stick.
• Cook burgers for about 5 minutes per side, flipping half-way through. Ground turkey needs to be cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit. You can remove them from the grill or pan at 160 degrees and let rest for 5 minutes, until they reach 165 degrees F, while you prepare your toppings.
• Let rest 5 minutes, or until internal temperature reaches 165 degrees.

JUICY TURKEY BURGERS

Steps:

• Combine the ground turkey, cheese, salt, pepper, Worcestershire sauce, and mustard in a bowl until blended.
• Divide the meat into 4 portions.
• Lightly toss one portion from hand to hand to form a ball, then lightly flatten the ball with your fingertips into a 1-inch patty.
• Repeat with the remaining portions.
• Heat the oil in a large heavy skillet (preferably cast iron or stainless steel with an aluminum core).
• over medium heat until very hot.
• Swirl the oil in the pan to coat the bottom.
• Add the burgers and cook over medium heat without moving them until the bottom of each is dark brown and crusted, 3-4 minutes.
• Turn the burgers over, continue to cook until the bottom is light brown but not yet crusted, 3-4 minutes.
• Decrease heat to low; position the cover slightly ajar on the pan and allow steam to escape, and continue to cook for 8-10 minutes longer, flipping once if necessary to promote deep browning, or until the center is completely opaque yet still juicy or an instant read thermometer reads 160°.
• Remove from the pan and serve immediately.
