Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground turkey meat
  • 1 egg lightly beaten
  • ¼ breadcrumbs see notes
  • 1 lemon zested
  • 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary finely minced
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 4 gourmet burger buns see notes
  • ¼ cup raspberry jam see notes
  • 4 ounces brie divided

Instructions

  • Preheat grill or grill pan to medium-high heat. Prepare a baking pan or plate for transferring patties by lining with foil. Set aside.
  • In a large bowl, gently combine ground turkey meat, egg, bread crumbs, lemon zest, minced rosemary, onion powder and salt until mixture is uniform. Do not overmix.
  • Divide the mixture into 4 equal sections. Lightly wet or oil your hands, and shape each section into a patty.
  • Place patties on hot outdoor grill or on a grill pan. Cook about 6-7 minutes on one side; flip and cook another 5-6 minutes on the other side until just about cooked through. Turkey burgers should be safely cooked to 165°F. Try not to overcook as this will dry them out.
  • Remove turkey burgers from grill and place onto burger buns. Top each burger with about an ounce of brie. Place about ¼ cup arugula on top of each burger.
  • Spread a generous layer of raspberry jam on the top half of each bun. Flip top of bun onto burger and enjoy!¼

Notes

  • Since turkey burgers are lean, it helps to oil or spray the grates on the grill to prevent sticking. Simply generously oil a paper towel and, using tongs, rub along the hot grill grates.
  • You can use regular or gluten free breadcrumbs for this recipe. In the original recipe, I used ¼ cup of almond flour, which kept them moist and gave them a nice texture.
  • Try to select a sturdy, flavorful burger bun for these like a broiche bun to really drive home the gourmet flavor!
  • I use raspberry jam for these turkey burgers, but you can experiment with any type of jam such as fig or onion. Honey would also be equally delicious here.
