Best Low Fat Turkey Burgers Recipes
KITTENCAL'S MOIST TURKEY BURGERS FOR THE GRILL (LOW FAT)
The addition of shredded carrots is the secret ingredient to the most juicy moist turkey burgers so please don't omit them! these are delicious done on the grill I make these quite often and my family loves them and they are low fat too --- they may be broiled or pan-fried but they are much better if prepared on the grill or even an indoor grill would be great! This recipe makes approx 8 turkey burgers, depending on how large you make them, you might want to double or triple the amounts and freeze the patties --- Mrs. Dash seasoning may be replaced for the seasoned salt if you are on a low sodium diet --- plan ahead the patties must chill for 4-24 hours to blend flavors, the longer chilling time the better! --- for the best flavor use seasoned salt not white salt and if you are a garlic-lover then increase to 2 tablespoons, for my garlic-loving family I use about 6 garlic cloves, and my family loves lots of heat so I also add in 2 tablespoons of crushed chili flakes

VEAL OR TURKEY BURGERS W/ONION GRAVY (LOW FAT!)
This is an old Weight Watcher's recipe my mom has been making since the late 70's. We both still make it to this day. The recipe contains no added fat, but you would never know it. Goes great served over rice or egg noodles.

Steps:
- Season the meat with salt and pepper to taste. Weigh out 4 oz/125 gm of meat and shape into a pattie. Do this with the remaining meat. Place patties on a platter, cover with plastic wrap/cling film and set aside.
- Pour water into a large fry pan/skillet over medium high heat. Add stock cubes (use beef cubes for veal, chicken cubes for turkey), onions and mushrooms. Bring to a boil and then lower heat to simmer. Cook until onions are just about cooked. You may need to add more water as the veggies cook as you want to have about 2 cups worth of gravy at the end.
- Gently place the burgers in the pan with the veggies and poach for about 5-7 minutes on each side, pressing down with a spatula to flatten a bit. Cook until juices run clear. Remove the cooked burgers to a plate and keep warm. Return sauce to a boil and add more water if necessary.
- Put cold water into a small cup or bowl and stir in cornstarch with a fork or whisk. Slowly pour into the sauce in the pan and thicken.
- Place rice or noodles on plate, place two burgers on top, and pour gravy over burgers.

THAI INSPIRED TURKEY BURGERS (LOW FAT)
This is my latest concoction in my mission to bring healthier food to my household. Over the past few weeks I have been using Fridays to try out different versions of healthier burgers. Tonight we had these Thai inspired turkey burgers. They had a fresh taste and I think it is important to use the fresh versions of the ingredients rather than dried spices to get that taste. I had mine on a bun with some crisp lettuce and some fat free mayo and ketchup. I bet they would be really nice with some sweet chili sauce in place of the ketchup and mayo though. These could easily be made up and frozen raw to have ready when short of time. Cooking time includes chilling time.

Steps:
- Put the lemongrass, garlic, ginger, green onions, cilantro, chili flakes and lime zest into a food processor or chopper along with the water and blitz them until they are finely chopped and combined.
- Add the mixture to the turkey and also put in the egg white.
- Mix the turkey and the other ingredients together by hand until they are well combined.
- Put into the fridge to chill for about 30 minutes for them to firm up a bit.
- Take out of the fridge and shape into four equal sized burger patties.
- Then either fry them off in a pan as you would normally do or do as I do and brush them very lightly with a bit of extra virgin olive oil and cook them on a Foreman type grill. It takes about 8 minutes or so for them to be fully cooked.
- Serve.
