Ingredients

• 1 pound ground turkey
• 1-2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
• 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
• ½ teaspoon salt
• ¼ teaspoon pepper

Instructions

• 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.
