How to Make Apple Cheddar Turkey Burgers
- In a medium bowl, gently combine ground turkey, chopped scallions, parsley, poultry seasoning, salt, and pepper. Avoid overmixing.
- Form the mixture into four equal-sized patties. Use your thumb to make a slight indentation in the center of each patty to prevent bulging during cooking.
- Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
- Add the patties to the skillet and cook for 6-7 minutes per side for medium doneness, or until cooked through. Use a meat thermometer to ensure an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
- Top each patty with 3 apple slices and 2 cheese slices. Tent the skillet with foil and cook for 1-2 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
- While the burgers cook, in a small bowl, mix together cranberry sauce and Dijon mustard.
- Spread the cranberry mustard mixture evenly onto the muffin tops.
- Place lettuce leaves on the muffin bottoms. Top with the cooked turkey burgers and cranberry mustard muffin tops. Serve immediately and enjoy!
