These turkey burgers stay moist thanks to a few simple binding tricks, then get piled high with cool avocado slices and a smoky, tangy chipotle mayo. Grilled or pan-seared, they make a satisfying weeknight dinner that feels a bit lighter than a classic beef burger without skimping on flavor.

Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 pounds ground turkey
  • 1/4 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1 egg
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1/2 cup chipotle mayo
  • 1 avocado, sliced
  • 4 burger buns
  • 4 leaves lettuce
  • 4 slices tomato
  • 1/4 red onion, thinly sliced

Method

  1. In a large bowl, combine the ground turkey, breadcrumbs, egg, minced garlic, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix gently with your hands until just combined.

  2. Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape into patties about 3/4-inch thick.

  3. Heat the olive oil in a 9-inch skillet over medium heat.

  4. Cook the patties for 5 to 6 minutes per side, until the internal temperature reaches 165°F and the exterior is browned.

  5. While the patties cook, toast the burger buns, cut side down, in a dry skillet or under the broiler for 1 to 2 minutes until golden.

  6. Spread chipotle mayo generously on the cut sides of each toasted bun.

  7. Assemble the burgers with lettuce, a cooked turkey patty, sliced avocado, tomato, and red onion.

  8. Top with the remaining bun halves and serve immediately.
