Ground turkey gets packed with garlic, fresh parsley, oregano, and bright lemon zest and juice, then a touch of Dijon mustard keeps every bite juicy and full of flavor. A quick sear in olive oil gives these patties a deep golden crust while the inside stays tender, and a squeeze of fresh lemon at the end wakes everything up. Crisp butter lettuce and ripe tomato add freshness and crunch, turning this into a light, herb-forward burger rather than a heavy one. It's an easy weeknight dinner that leans on real, whole ingredients, and it's a smart choice to add to your Mediterranean-style lineup.

In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey, garlic, parsley, oregano, lemon zest, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes, if using. Mix with your hands until just combined — do not overwork the meat, or the patties will be dense.
Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each into a patty about 3/4 inch thick. Press a shallow dimple into the center of each patty with your thumb to help them cook flat without puffing.
