Best Turkey Burger Recipe

1. 1

   Place egg, parsley, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, salt and pepper in a large bowl. Mix with a fork to combine.

2. 2

   Add the ground turkey to the bowl and mix gently with the fork until just combined, being careful to not overwork the meat.
