Description

Imagine sinking your teeth into a juicy, flavorful turkey burger, but with a delightful twist. These aren't your ordinary patties; they're a celebration of savory goodness, perfect for a comforting meal any time of year. Each burger is generously stuffed with a rich, earthy filling of finely chopped walnuts and mushrooms, creating a symphony of textures and tastes in every bite.

The filling begins with the gentle sautéing of earthy mushrooms, their umami deepened as they release their moisture and begin to brown. This concentrated mushroom essence is then combined with the satisfying crunch of toasted walnuts, their nutty flavor complementing the earthiness of the mushrooms perfectly. A touch of butter adds richness and binds the filling together, creating a melt-in-your-mouth experience that elevates the humble turkey burger to something truly special.

The ground turkey, seasoned simply with herbs and spices, provides a lean and flavorful base for the decadent filling. As the burgers cook, the turkey remains tender and moist, its subtle flavor enhanced by the savory stuffing within. The aroma alone is enough to make your mouth water, hinting at the deliciousness to come.

Once cooked, the possibilities are endless. Top these savory delights with your favorite burger fixings – crisp lettuce, juicy tomato slices, tangy pickles, and a dollop of creamy mayonnaise or aioli. For an extra touch of indulgence, consider melting a slice of cheese over the warm patty, allowing it to ooze down the sides and add a layer of creamy, comforting flavor.

A mild cheese, such as provolone or Monterey Jack, complements the savory filling without overpowering it. Whether you're looking for a satisfying weeknight dinner or a unique dish to impress guests, these stuffed turkey burgers are sure to please. They offer a delightful combination of textures and flavors, from the juicy turkey to the savory filling and the satisfying crunch of the walnuts.

Prepare to be transported to a world of culinary delight with every bite.

Instructions

    1.
    Melt butter in a pan over low heat. Roughly chop mushrooms and add to the butter. Cover and cook for 3-4 minutes, until browned.
    2.
    Stir chopped walnuts into the pan with the mushrooms. Cover and heat for another 2-3 minutes, until the walnuts become fragrant and toasted.
    3.
    Remove the mushroom-walnut mixture from the stove. Combine in a food processor with garlic and green onion. Pulse until you have a creamy blend and set aside to cool.
    4.
    In a mixing bowl, combine ground turkey, salt, pepper, thyme, rosemary, oregano, parsley, and paprika. Mix well.
    5.
    Divide the turkey mixture into 2 portions and flatten each on a clean surface. Place an equal portion of the stuffing in the center of each flattened turkey patty. Fold the turkey over the stuffing to form a ball, then flatten slightly to seal the burger patty.
    6.
    Heat olive oil in a pan over medium heat. Place the patties in the oil, seam side down, and flatten with a spatula. Cover and cook for 4-5 minutes per side, adjusting heat to avoid burning.
    7.
    Let the burgers cool off the stove before adding any toppings and serving.
