Ingredients

  • 1/2 medium onion
  • 1 pound lean ground turkey
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 2 tablespoons ketchup
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • Freshly ground pepper to taste
  • 4 hamburger buns, preferably whole wheat
  • 1 tablespoon canola oil, or use pan spray
  • Sliced tomato
  • Sliced onion
  • Iceberg lettuce
  • Pickles
  • Sliced red pepper
  • Ketchup and mustard

Method

  • Grate the onion on the fine holes of a grater.
  • You should have about two tablespoons of grated onion (and a lot of juice, which you can discard).
  • Place in a bowl with the ground turkey, Worcestershire sauce, ketchup, salt and pepper.
  • Using a fork, mix together well.
  • Shape into four patties the mixture will be quite moist and press the patties into 1/2-inch thick rounds.
  • Heat the canola oil in a nonstick griddle or large nonstick frying pan over medium-high heat.
  • (Alternately, spray the griddle or pan with pan spray.)
  • When you can feel the heat while holding your hand just above griddle or pan, cook the patties for five minutes on each side.
  • Serve on buns, with the condiments of your choice.
