Method
 

How to Make Turkey Burgers
  1. Gather all ingredients together to streamline your cooking process.
  2. Mix the ground turkey, breadcrumbs, egg, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper in a bowl until just combined.
  3. Divide the mixture into four equal portions and shape them into patties about one inch thick.
  4. Preheat your grill or stovetop pan to medium-high heat (375°F / 190°C) and lightly oil the surface to prevent sticking.
  5. Cook the patties for about five minutes on each side until they reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
  6. Assemble your burgers by placing the cooked patties on the buns and adding your choice of toppings.
