Juicy Grilled Turkey Food

JUICY TURKEY BURGERS

Steps:

• 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.
• Let rest 5 minutes, or until internal temperature reaches 165 degrees.

WENDY'S GRILLED JUICY TURKEY BURGERS

Steps:

• Add butter and chopped vidalia onion ( you can use any onion; I prefer sweet ones) to frying pan and cook until onion for a couple minutes on medium heat. Add chopped garlic and 1/2 teaspoon salt and cook until onions start to get a tad brown on edges . Take off heat and put into small bowl to let cool down while mixing turkey.
• In a medium to large bowl add ground turkey and egg white . Mix with hands until combined. Add onion mixture (butter and all!) along with the rest of the ingredients and mix with hands until combined . Form into 4 balls and slightly squish down to make a patty form . (I made 4 burgers with 1 pound of turkey). You could freeze at this point if you wanted to, and I did with two of them for later use.
• On a metal grate tray covered with non stick aluminum foil (did not put meat directly on grill grates , although you could ) place burgers on metal tray and onto an already heated medium grill . I flipped burgers every 5 minutes for a total of 15 minutes of cooking. Grill is shut while grilling . .
• They turned out.
• Grate! ( Pun intended!).
• I was surprised at how flavorful and juicy they turned out. I had very thick shredded jack and sharp cheddar cheese and I think that makes a difference along with using a cooking surface that the cheese and drippings can't go through , hence me using the non stick foil on grate and not directly on grill.
• Served bunless (for me )with sweet potato tots and a fresh green salad. Husband ate with bun and no toppings. :).
