Low fat Greek turkey burgers

I can’t eat burgers because they’re too high in fat, so I found this recipe online and modified to use 99% lean turkey instead of 93%. Coating the patty with dried sumac forms a bit of a crust and enhances the flavor without drying it.

Ingredient

Food ration :

4-6 servings

Cooking time :

35-40 minutes

1 pound

99% lean ground turkey

1 tablespoon

dried mint

2 teaspoons

dried oregano

2 teaspoons

garlic powder

1/4 tsp

salt

1/2 teaspoon

black pepper

1 teaspoon

olive oil

1 teaspoon

sumac

1/2 cup

nonfat yoghurt

1/2

cucumber

1/4 tsp

dried mint or 1 teaspoon fresh mint

1/2 teaspoon

sumac or lemon juice to taste

Cooking instructions

* Step 1

Preheat oven to 425 F.

* Step 2

Combine turkey, spices (except sumac), and olive oil in a bowl and mix (easiest to do with your hands).

* Step 3

Form a log and divide it in half. Divide each half in half again to make 4 equal portions, or divide them in three parts to make 6 equal portions for a lighter portion size. At this point you can freeze the balls for later use.

* Step 4

For each burger, press flat to form a patty. Coat each side with 1/2 teaspoon sumac. Set on silicone baking mat.

* Step 5

Bake in oven for 20 minutes. Flip burgers and bake an additional 5 minutes. If you want to toast the hamburger buns, place in oven last 5 minutes if frozen or last 2 minutes if not frozen.
