Ingredients

  • ¾ pound ground turkey (7% fat works best)
  • 2 tablespoons fnely chopped green onion
  • 2 tablespoons finely chopped Italian parsley
  • 2 tablespoons grated Parmesan
  • ⅛ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ¼ teaspoon kosher salt

Preparation

Griddler® Compact position: Closed
Plate side: Grill

  1. 1. Put all ingredients in a large bowl. Using clean hands, combine and mix well, but do not overwork the meat. Divide and shape into 2 burgers. If not grilling immediately, leave wrapped in refrigerator.
  2. Insert plates on grill side. Preheat the Griddler® to High.
  3. Once grill has preheated, place the burgers evenly spaced on the grill and cover. Cook for 8 to 10 minutes, until well grilled and the juices run clear. The internal temperature of the meat should be 170°F when tested with an instant read thermometer.
  4. Serve hot on grilled buns or English muffins.*

*Note: For toasted buns, halve and grill in the closed position for 30 to 45 seconds to desired doneness. Remove and reserve, then grill burgers.
