In a bowl, combine… the zest of 1 Lemon, a handful of fresh (or dried) Thyme leaves, 2 Cloves Garlic (crushed or finely chopped), a grated Onion and some Salt & Pepper
If your butcher will mince Turkey for you – brilliant…. If not, whizz your turkey meat up in a food processor (and wash the processor super carefully afterwards)
Mix the Turkey mince with the other ingredients
Make the Turkey Burgers, shaping each pattie in a similar size so they cook evenly
Put on a plate and in the fridge to firm up for an hour or so before cooking. Remove from the fridge a while before cooking (so they are at room temperature)
When you are ready to eat – heat some Olive Oil in a pan, and when hot, add the burgers – giving them 6 or 7 minutes on each side over a medium heat. When the turkey is properly cooked (no pink) – take them off the heat and drain on kitchen paper
Rest for a few minutes before serving. These Turkey Burgers are great with traditional burger stuff (rolls, mustard etc) but are also good with a Vegetable Broth or some Pilav and a dollop of 0% Greek Yoghurt
[This recipe would work well with chicken too...]
