Grilled Turkey-Zucchini Burgers

Zucchini is the magic ingredient in these extra juicy turkey burgers.

Ingredients

  1. 1 medium zucchini, grated (1 ½ cups loosely packed)

  2. 1 pound 85% lean ground turkey

  3. 1 large egg

  4. 1 teaspoon garlic powder

  5. 1 teaspoon ground cumin

  6. .50 teaspoon kosher salt

  7. Canola oil, for grilling

  8. 4 burger buns, toasted

  9. Sliced tomatoes, Bibb lettuce, mayonnaise, honey mustard, and pickles, for topping

  10. Sweet potato chips, for serving

Directions

  1. Place zucchini on a clean kitchen towel and wring out excess liquid. Stir squeezed zucchini, turkey, egg, garlic powder, cumin, and salt in a large bowl. Divide mixture evenly into 4 portions; form each into a ¾-inch-thick patty.

  2. Heat an oiled grill to medium or a greased grill pan over medium-high. Add patties and cook, flipping once, until a thermometer inserted in center of patties registers 165 F, 5 to 6 minutes per side. Serve on buns with desired toppings and chips.
