Time 48m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 1/4 lbs ground turkey (93% lean)
1/2 cup whole milk ricotta cheese
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon vegetable oil or 1 tablespoon canola oil

Steps:

  • Combine the ground turkey, cheese, salt, pepper, Worcestershire sauce, and mustard in a bowl until blended.
  • Divide the meat into 4 portions.
  • Lightly toss one portion from hand to hand to form a ball, then lightly flatten the ball with your fingertips into a 1-inch patty.
  • Repeat with the remaining portions.
  • Heat the oil in a large heavy skillet (preferably cast iron or stainless steel with an aluminum core).
  • over medium heat until very hot.
  • Swirl the oil in the pan to coat the bottom.
  • Add the burgers and cook over medium heat without moving them until the bottom of each is dark brown and crusted, 3-4 minutes.
  • Turn the burgers over, continue to cook until the bottom is light brown but not yet crusted, 3-4 minutes.
  • Decrease heat to low; position the cover slightly ajar on the pan and allow steam to escape, and continue to cook for 8-10 minutes longer, flipping once if necessary to promote deep browning, or until the center is completely opaque yet still juicy or an instant read thermometer reads 160°.
  • Remove from the pan and serve immediately.
