If you love a quick and easy weeknight meal, give these turkey burgers a try! I’ve always followed recipes for turkey burgers that included breadcrumbs and egg until I came across a recipe by @bobbyflay that did not include those two ingredients. So I thought if Bobby Flay made it, it must be great! So I created these easy dill turkey burgers with yogurt sauce. I love dill and have added it to the burgers and the yogurt sauce for a burst of flavor. As a fun family dinner idea, declare “dress your burger” night and let your kids pick their favorite veggies to top their burger with!
Ingredients
1 pound ground turkey breast (or mix ½ pound ground turkey breast with ½ pound ground dark meat turkey)
2 tablespoons fresh dill, finely chopped
1 clove garlic, peeled and finely chopped
2 tablespoons onion, finely chopped
1 ½ teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
2 teaspoons low sodium soy sauce
1/8 teaspoon black pepper
6 whole grain burger rolls (or for a low carb option, wrap in romaine lettuce!)
Yogurt Sauce
1 cup Greek yogurt
2 teaspoons dill, finely chopped
2 tablespoons onion, minced
¼ cup tomato, chopped
¼ cup cucumber, chopped
2 teaspoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
½ teaspoon ground cumin
salt and pepper to taste
Directions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- In a small bowl, combine yogurt, cucumber, dill, lemon juice, onion tomato, cumin, salt and pepper to taste.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine all ingredients together and mix well. Form into 6 patties.
- Heat an oven-safe skillet over medium heat and coat with a dash of olive oil. Cook the patties until nicely browned, about 1-2 minutes, and flip. Continue cooking another minute until browned on both sides.
- Turn stove off and place skillet directly in oven. Bake for 10 minutes or until internal temperature is 165 degrees F.
