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.
