How to Make Asian Style Turkey Burgers

1. In a large bowl, combine 1 lb ground turkey, 2 chopped scallions, 1/2 cup bread crumbs, 2 tablespoons chopped cilantro, 1 tablespoon soy sauce, 1 tablespoon grated ginger, and 1 clove minced garlic.
2. Season generously with salt and pepper to taste. Mix thoroughly until well combined.
3. Divide the turkey mixture into 8 equal portions.
4. Gently shape each portion into a patty, about 1/2 inch thick.
5. Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until shimmering.
6. Add 4 patties to the skillet and cook for 7-8 minutes per side, or until cooked through and slightly browned. Adjust heat as needed to prevent burning.
7. Repeat with the remaining 4 patties, adding more oil to the skillet if needed.
8. While the second batch cooks, keep the first batch warm in a 200°F oven.
9. **For the Orange-Soy Glaze:** In a small saucepan, combine 1/4 cup orange juice, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, and 1 tablespoon soy sauce.
10. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook, stirring occasionally, until the sauce has reduced by half, about 5-7 minutes.
11. Remove from heat and whisk in 1 tablespoon of butter and 1 tablespoon of chopped cilantro until smooth and glossy.
12. Pour the glaze over the cooked turkey burgers and serve immediately.
