Description
These juicy, flavor-packed turkey burgers come together effortlessly in your air fryer, delivering a healthier yet delicious alternative to traditional burgers.
Ingredients
- 1 lb ground turkey (93% lean recommended)
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 dried parsley
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground mustard
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- Olive oil spray (for air fryer basket)
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer at 400°F for 3–5 minutes.
- Make the burger mix: In a large bowl, combine the ground turkey, garlic powder, onion powder, dried parsley, Italian seasoning, paprika, ground mustard, black pepper, and kosher salt. Mix just until everything is combined—don’t overwork it.
- Form turkey patties: Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and use your thumb to make a shallow indentation in the center of each patty to prevent puffing during cooking.
- Prepare the air fryer: Lightly spray the air fryer basket with olive oil spray to keep the patties from sticking.
- Air fry the burgers: Place the patties in a single layer in the air fryer basket. Cook at 400°F for 10–12 minutes, flipping halfway through, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F. The temperature will rise to 165°F as the burgers rest.
- Rest and serve: Let the burgers rest for 3–4 minutes before serving. Serve hot on buns with your favorite toppings and condiments.
