Flavorful Turkey Burgers<\/strong><\/h2>\n

\"These\"These<\/p>\n

These homemade turkey burgers are made with fresh ingredients such as onion, garlic, and mushrooms. The veggies are sauteed first to bring out their savory flavors, and then mixed with juicy ground turkey and simple seasonings. Although they aren\u2019t as easy as storebought versions, you\u2019ll be so glad you took the extra time spent to create these delicious patties. We\u2019ve used turkey over beef in this recipe so that those who can\u2019t eat red meat, or are looking for a lighter option, can still partake. I personally find that turkey pairs better with the veggies and caramelized onion anyway! However, if you prefer beef, you can swap it in just as easily!<\/span><\/p>\n

Sweet Balsamic Caramelized Onions<\/strong><\/h2>\n

Onions contain natural sugars, so, when cooked slow and low, they develop a delicious caramelized texture. To increase the flavor even more, we slow cook these onions with balsamic, as well, which creates a mouthwatering sweet reduction. Together, the red onion and balsamic pair amazingly for the most uniquely sweet burger topping. We know the patties make up the bulk of this meal, however, the balsamic caramelized onions are definitely the star of this dish!\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Honestly, these turkey burgers with balsamic caramelized onions are so full of flavor as is, that you don\u2019t need<\/em> to add anything to them. But, you can top them with whatever you desire! We think some blue cheese or gorgonzola crumbles complement them wonderfully. Of course, you can never go wrong with some crispy bacon either! And then there are always the classic options of lettuce, tomato, pickles, ketchup, and mustard.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

When it comes to side dishes, your options are endless! Some tasty options include\u00a0Must-Have Air Fried French Fries<\/a>,\u00a0Oven Sweet Potato Fries<\/a>,\u00a0Creamy Southern Style Coleslaw<\/a>,\u00a0Best Ever Potato Salad<\/a>, or our Easy Baked Beans<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

How To Make These High Protein Burgers<\/h2>\n

\"Add\"Add<\/p>\n

\n

You will want to start by making your balsamic caramelized onions because they will take a bit longer to cook. Remember, low and slow will provide the best flavor! Heat the olive oil in a medium pan over medium heat. Then, add the sliced onions to the pan and toss them until they\u2019re covered in oil. Next, drizzle the onions with the balsamic vinegar. Saute them for about 5 minutes or until soft, then reduce the heat to medium-low. Cook, stirring often, until the onions turn to a golden brown color and are caramelized, about 30 minutes.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Meanwhile, get ready to make your turkey burgers by heating another pan over medium-high heat. Add the olive oil, then once it\u2019s hot, add the chopped red onion and mushrooms. Saute the veggies until soft, about 7 minutes, and then remove them from the pan. In a large bowl, combine the sauteed onion and mushroom, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, ketchup, mixed herbs, smoked paprika, ground turkey, and egg. Use your hands to fully mix the ingredients into a well combined mixture. Once combined, form 6 patties.<\/p>\n

Heat a skillet or grill over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 8 to 10 minutes, or until they\u2019re cooked all the way through. Once they\u2019re done, place each patty on a whole wheat bun and top with caramelized onion and any other desired toppings.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
