How to Make American Turkey Burgers

1. In a large bowl, gently combine 1 lb ground turkey, 1 teaspoon onion powder, 1/2 teaspoon garlic salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
2. Add 1/4 cup finely chopped onion (optional) and 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce (optional).
3. Gently mix until just combined; avoid overmixing.
4. Shape the mixture into 4 patties, about 3/4 inch thick.
5. Refrigerate the patties, uncovered, for at least 30 minutes (this helps them hold their shape).
6. Preheat grill to medium-high heat (about 350-400°F). Lightly brush the patties with olive oil.
7. Place patties on the preheated grill.
8. Grill for 7-9 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F.
9. Top each patty with 1-2 slices of American cheese during the last 2 minutes of grilling, or until melted.
10. Serve on toasted buns with your favorite toppings (lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles, etc.).
