Zucchini turkey burgers are a delicious and healthy twist on a classic favorite. This recipe combines the lean protein of ground turkey with the moisture and subtle flavor of zucchini, making the burgers juicy and flavorful. Paired with fresh lettuce, tomato, and a soft hamburger bun, these burgers are perfect for a wholesome family dinner or a summer barbecue.
- Grate the zucchini finely to ensure it incorporates well with the turkey and helps keep the burgers moist.
- Squeeze out excess moisture from the grated zucchini before mixing it with the turkey to prevent the burgers from becoming too watery.
- Cook the burgers on a medium-high heat to ensure they are cooked through without burning the outside.
- Use a meat thermometer to check that the internal temperature of the burgers reaches 165°F (74°C) for safe consumption.
- Toast the hamburger buns lightly for added texture and flavor.
- Feel free to add other toppings like cheese, avocado, or pickles to customize your burgers to your liking.
With a combination of lean turkey and zucchini, these burgers are a nutritious alternative to the classic hamburger. The added spices enhance the flavor, while the fresh lettuce and tomato provide a refreshing crunch.
