INGREDIENTS
4 oz Lean Ground Turkey (113g)
1 oz Fresh Mozzarella (28g)
1/8 cup Panko Breadcrumbs (15g)
1 tbsp Egg White (15g)
1 Whole Wheat Burger Bun (50g)
1 spray Olive Oil Cooking Spray
Seasonings (Salt, Pepper, Italian Herbs)
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and lightly grease a baking sheet with olive oil cooking spray.
Divide the ground turkey into two equal portions. Flatten each portion into a thin patty.
Place a round slice or ball (about 1 oz) of fresh mozzarella in the center of one patty. Cover with the second patty and gently seal the edges to encase the mozzarella completely.
In a small bowl, combine the egg white and panko breadcrumbs with a pinch of salt, pepper, and Italian herbs.
Lightly press the breadcrumb mixture onto the surface of each turkey burger, ensuring an even, crispy coating.
Place the stuffed burgers on the prepared baking sheet and spray the tops with a bit more olive oil to enhance crispiness.
Bake in the oven for 18-22 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F and the coating is golden and crisp.
Toast the whole wheat bun if desired. Assemble the burger by placing the crispy turkey patty on the bun. Serve immediately.
