Instructions

Prepare the Patties

In a large bowl, combine the ground turkey, olive oil, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix gently until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.

Form the Patties

Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each into a patty about 1-inch thick. Make a slight indentation in the center of each patty to prevent it from puffing up during grilling.

Preheat the Grill

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, around 375°F to 400°F. Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.

Grill the Patties

Place the patties on the grill and cook for 5-6 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F. Avoid pressing down on the patties to retain juiciness.

Astuce de chef : Use a meat thermometer to check doneness accurately.

Assemble the Burgers

Let the patties rest for a few minutes after grilling. Assemble the burgers by placing a lettuce leaf, a slice of tomato, and avocado on each bun, followed by the turkey patty. Serve immediately.
