These turkey burgers are mixed with whole grain and Dijon mustard for a tangy depth that keeps lean ground turkey from tasting flat. Grilling over direct heat gives the patties a charred crust while a mustard glaze brushed on in the final minutes locks in moisture. Serve on toasted buns with classic burger toppings for an easy weeknight dinner or weekend cookout.
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 pounds ground turkey
- 2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
- 1 tablespoon whole grain mustard
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/4 cup panko breadcrumbs
- 1 egg, lightly beaten
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
- 2 tablespoons honey mustard, for glazing
- 1 tablespoon olive oil, for brushing grill
- 4 hamburger buns, split
- 4 leaves lettuce
- 4 slices tomato
- 4 slices red onion
Method
-
In a large bowl, combine the ground turkey, Dijon mustard, whole grain mustard, Worcestershire sauce, minced garlic, panko breadcrumbs, egg, salt, and pepper. Mix gently with your hands until just combined.
-
Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape into patties about 3/4 inch thick, pressing a slight dimple in the center of each to prevent doming.
-
Cover the patties and refrigerate for 15 minutes to help them hold together on the grill.
-
Preheat a grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F) and brush the grates with olive oil.
-
Place the patties on the grill and cook for 5 minutes without moving them to develop a good sear.
-
Flip the patties, brush the tops with honey mustard, and continue grilling for 5 to 6 minutes, until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
-
Remove the patties from the grill and let them rest for 3 minutes.
-
Toast the buns on the grill for about 1 minute, then assemble burgers with lettuce, tomato, red onion, and the turkey patties.
