Ingredients 

  • 1-1/2 lbs. ground turkey
  • 1/4 cup oat flour/ground oats
  • 3 cloves fresh garlic, minced
  • 1 tsp onion powder
  • 1 Tbsp fresh oregano, minced
  • 1 Tbsp Dijon mustard
  • 1 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce
  • sea salt and fresh ground pepper, to taste
  • avocado oil spray

For pico de gallo:

  • 1 lb vine ripe tomatoes, diced
  • 1 red or white onion, diced
  • 1 jalapeño, finely diced (seeds and membranes removed for a milder salsa)
  • a handful of fresh cilantro leaves, chopped
  • juice of 1 fresh lime
  • sea salt and fresh ground black pepper, to taste

Instructions 

  • In a large glass bowl, combine all pico de gallo ingredients and set aside until ready to use.
  • In a large bowl, combine ground turkey, oat flour, garlic, onion powder, oregano, dijon mustard, Worcestershire sauce, sea salt, and pepper to taste. Stir well to combine, then divide your mixture into 6 equal parts.
  • Using your hands create 1'' thick patties, then with your thumb, gently press in the
  • center to create a small dimple as shown. This will help the patty hold its flat shape when grilling.

Indoor grilling:

  • Heat a large grill pan over medium-high heat and lightly spray it with oil. Add burgers to the pan and reduce the heat a bit. Cook on one side for about 3-4 minutes, then flip and continue too cook until nicely browned. Flip over a couple of times more to make sure that your burgers are cooked through.

Outdoor grilling:

  • Spray your grill grates with avocado oil, and once hot enough, add on the burgers patties. Cook on medium heat for about 5 minutes on each side, or until cooked through.

To serve:

  • Serve burgers hot and top them generously with pico de gallo.
  • Enjoy!
