Ingredients
Instructions
-
In a mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey, teriyaki sauce, soy sauce, garlic powder, ground ginger, black pepper, and a pinch of salt. Mix well until all the ingredients are evenly incorporated.
-
Divide the turkey mixture into 4 equal portions and shape them into burger patties. Make a slight indentation in the center of each patty with your thumb to prevent them from puffing up while cooking.
-
Heat a grill or grill pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, place the turkey patties on the grill and cook for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C).
-
While the patties are cooking, heat a separate skillet over medium heat. Add a drizzle of oil and sauté the sliced sweet onions until they turn golden brown and caramelized, about 10-15 minutes. Season with a pinch of salt to taste.
-
Toast the burger buns on the grill or in a toaster until they are lightly golden.
-
To assemble the burgers, spread a dollop of mayonnaise on the bottom half of each bun. Place a lettuce leaf on top, followed by a cooked turkey patty. Top with a generous amount of caramelized sweet onions and sliced tomatoes.
-
Close the burger with the top half of the bun and secure it in place with a toothpick if needed.
-
Serve the Sweet Onion Teriyaki Turkey Burgers hot, alongside your favorite side dishes like sweet potato fries or a crisp green salad.
