Fall Turkey Burgers

The autumn equinox is just around the corner, leaves are just beginning to fall and what could be better on a warm, almost-fall evening than the comforting flavors of Thanksgiving, without any of the fuss or heating up the oven. These could be grilled as easily, but I think the oven brings out that truly thanksgiving turkey flavor!

What you need

  1. 1 1/4 lb ground turkey, preferrably a blend of thigh & breast meat
  2. 1/2 medium onion, grated
  3. 1 tbl fresh sage leaves, minced
  4. 1 tbl fresh thyme leaves, minced
  5. 2 large garlic cloves, minced or grated
  6. 1 tsp kosher salt
  7. freshly ground black pepper to taste

How to make it

  1. Combine all ingredients in a mixing bowl and blend well
  2. Form into 4 patties
  3. Heat fat (duck fat if available) over medium-high heat in a skillet
  4. Brown burgers on both sides -- about 2 minutes each side
  5. Cover and continue cooking until done


    6. Serve with steamed fresh green beans and green salad with fresh tomatoes
