Ingredients

4 servings

For the patties

1 ½ lb ground turkey (93% lean)
3 cloves garlic, minced
3 tbsp fresh parsley, finely chopped
1 tsp fresh oregano, finely chopped
1 tsp lemon zest
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
1 tsp dijon mustard
¾ tsp kosher salt
½ tsp black pepper
¼ tsp red pepper flakes (optional)

For cooking

1 tbsp olive oil

For serving

4 burger buns, split and toasted
4 leaves butter lettuce
1 medium tomato, sliced
4 lemon wedges
¼ cup mayonnaise (optional)

Instructions

1
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.
2
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.
