How to Make Abba's Ginger Turkey Burgers

  1. In a large bowl, combine 1 lb ground turkey, 2 chopped scallions, ½ cup breadcrumbs, 1 tbsp soy sauce, 1 tbsp grated fresh ginger, and 1 clove minced garlic.
  2. Season with salt and pepper to taste (optional).
  3. Gently mix all ingredients until just combined.
  4. Divide the turkey mixture into 8 equal portions.
  5. Shape each portion into a patty, about ¾ inch thick.
  6. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
  7. In a small saucepan, combine ¼ cup orange juice, 2 tbsp lemon juice, and 1 tbsp soy sauce.
  8. Bring the sauce to a simmer and cook until reduced by half, about 5-7 minutes.
  9. Add 4 turkey patties to the skillet and cook for 7-8 minutes per side, or until cooked through and browned.
  10. While the first batch cooks, preheat your oven to 200°F (93°C) to keep the cooked patties warm.
  11. Repeat steps 9 and 10 with the remaining 4 patties.
  12. Once the sauce is reduced, stir in 1 tbsp margarine and 1 tsp dried lemon basil (or 1 tbsp chopped fresh basil).
  13. Pour the sauce over the cooked turkey burgers.
  14. Serve immediately over rice or your favorite sides.
