Equipment

  • 1 Large Cast-Iron Skillet (10 inches)

Ingredients  

  • 16 ounces ground turkey, 85% lean
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • ¼ cup panko breadcrumbs
  • ½ teaspoon garlic salt
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 3 tablespoons chopped parsley
  • 1 cup frozen cranberries
  • 6 ounces brie cheese, cut in 16 slices, 1/4-inch thick
  • 4 hamburger buns

Instructions 

  • Combine ground turkey with Worcestershire sauce, kosher salt, black pepper, breadcrumbs, garlic salt, onion powder, chopped parsley, and frozen cranberries.
  • Divide the turkey mixture into four equal portions and form them into patties. Place patties on a small baking sheet and refrigerate for 10-15 minutes.
  • In the same cast-iron skillet cook turkey patties for approximately 3-5 minutes on each side.  When burgers have reached an internal temperature of 165 degrees top with 4 slices of cheese.

Notes

1. Use a preheated cast-iron or nonstick skillet to get a browned seared exterior.
2. Turkey burgers need to be cooked to an internal temperature of 165 degrees. Above 165 degrees and burgers will begin to dry out.
3. To bind the patties together use breadcrumbs. It will also help the patties keep their shape.
4. Turkey burgers are best served immediately when they are still juicy.
5. Substitute 3/4 of a cup of dried cranberries for the 1 cup of frozen cranberries.
