Mediterranean Turkey Patties
Ingredients (Makes 7 small patties):
1 lb. ground turkey
1 small yellow onion (or half a large onion), finely chopped or grated
1 egg
1/2 cup plain bread crumbs
1/2 cup parsley leaves, chopped
1 tsp ground cumin powder
1/2 tsp salt
~1/4 cup avocado oil for cooking
Instructions:
Combine all ingredients except avocado oil in a large bowl. Mix with your hands until well combined.
Form into desired size patties. I made about 7, 1/4 inch thick patties. You want to make sure they are not too thick so they will cook throughout.
Heat avocado oil in a medium/large non-stick skillet. When hot, add half the patties (so they have enough room to cook). Cook for ~3 minutes on each side to get a nice brown color. Then cover the skillet with a lid, reduce the heat to low and cook for another 5 minutes. Check that the internal temperature of the patties are at least 165° F before removing from the pan. Cook the remainder fo the patties in the same manner.
Recommend serving with salad, toasted pita and green tahini sauce dipping. Some people also like to add a little hot sauce such as sriracha or chili-garlic sauce. Enjoy!
