EASY ASIAN TURKEY BURGERS

Easy Asian Turkey Burgers image

These turkey burgers are fast, easy, and healthy! They are great on the grill and also freeze well. As a college student who is always looking for healthy, fast meals, it doesn't get any better than this. The night before, I take one burger out of the freezer and let it thaw in the fridge overnight/while I have class the next day. Once I get home, I just throw it on my forman grill and dinner's ready in about 5 minutes! I serve on Arnold Sandwich Thins with sauteed onions.

Time 15m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

Ingredients

20 ounces ground turkey breast
1 egg
1/3 cup breadcrumbs
1 tablespoon minced garlic clove (I use the kind pre-minced in a jar.)
3 -4 tablespoons red onions, minced
1/2-1 teaspoon ground ginger (according to your tastes)
1 tablespoon low sodium soy sauce (more if you like)
1/2 teaspoon black pepper

Steps:

Start by putting the ground turkey in a large bowl.
Crack egg into the same bowl and scramble with a fork before mixing in the bread crumbs, garlic, onions, ground ginger, and soy sauce.
Mix together with a fork until just combined. Don't over-mix.
Form into 6 patties (I start with a 1/3 dry measuring cup and adjust the sizes from there).
At this point the burgers are ready for the grill OR the freezer.
TO GRILL:.
Grill about 5 minutes per side, or until cooked through (no pink in the middle). Will take less time if using a George Forman Grill.
Top with sauteed red onions if desired.
Serve on toasted/grilled sandwich thins.
TO FREEZE:.
After forming patties, arrange burgers on a cookie sheet and freeze.
Once solid, individually wrap the burgers in sandwich baggies.
Place baggies in a larger zip lock freezer bag or an air tight container.
Thaw before cooking.
