1-2 pieces french bread, crusts cut off and chopped into very small pieces (approx ½ C)
1 egg, beaten
1 Tbsp 0% greek yogurt
2 cloves garlic, minced
½ C minced yellow onion
1 tsp olive oil
1.25 lean organic ground turkey
½ C finely chopped fresh basil
1 tsp kosher salt
½ tsp ground pepper
6 brioche buns
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl add bread crumbs, egg and greek yogurt. Mix together and let the bread absorb the egg and yogurt.
Heat oil in a small sautee pan over medium low heat. Add onions and sautee for 3 minutes. Add garlic and sautee for an additional 2 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside to cool.
Add ground turkey to the bread crumb, egg and yogurt. Add sauteed onions and garlic, basil and
S & P. Mix all ingredients together, be careful not to overmix.
Shape the turkey meat into pattys. Heat a grill pan over medium high heat. Once the pan is hot place the burgers on the pan. Cook for approximately 5 minutes, flip burger and continue cooking for an additional 5 minutes (may have to adjust cook time depending on size of the patty). Throw the burger inside the brioche bun and serve with your favorite toppings and condiments. We served ours with slow roasted tomatoes, caramelized onions and fresh spinach. Yum!
Good Thyme Tip ? - Lighten up and wrap the turkey patty in lettuce instead of a bun.
