Instructions

  • Place 1 pound lean ground turkey in a medium mixing bowl.
  • Add 1/2 cup diced sun-dried tomatoes, 1/2 cup low-fat feta cheese, 2 tablespoons diced chives or green onions, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, and kosher or sea salt to taste. If using sun-dried tomatoes packed in oil, drain and dice them before adding.
  • Gently mix ingredients with your hands or a spoon until just combined; avoid overworking the meat.
  • Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each into a patty about 3/4 inch thick (make a slight indentation in the center of each patty to help them cook evenly).
  • (Optional) Chill the formed patties in the refrigerator 15–30 minutes to help them hold their shape.
  • Preheat an outdoor grill to medium-high or preheat a George Foreman–style grill according to the manufacturer’s instructions.
  • Cook the patties on the preheated grill until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C); if using an outdoor grill, flip once during cooking. Typical cooking time is roughly 4–6 minutes per side but will vary by thickness and grill.
  • Transfer cooked burgers to a plate and let rest 3–5 minutes before serving.
  • Serve and top the burgers with your favorite condiments.
