Crispy Baked Mozzarella-Stuffed Turkey Burger
Enjoy a savory twist on the classic turkey burger by stuffing it with melty mozzarella and baking to crispy perfection. This recipe offers a delightful balance of lean protein and fresh flavors, all nestled between a whole wheat bun and accented with crisp vegetables.
INGREDIENTS
4 oz Lean Ground Turkey
1 oz Part-Skim Mozzarella Cheese
1 Whole Wheat Bun
1 cup Fresh Spinach Leaves
2 medium Tomato Slices
0.5 tsp Garlic Powder
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
In a medium bowl, combine the lean ground turkey with garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until just combined to avoid overworking the meat.
Divide the turkey mixture into two equal patties. Create a small indentation in the center of one patty.
Place the mozzarella cheese in the indentation and cover with the second patty, sealing the edges well to encase the cheese.
Place the stuffed patty on the prepared baking sheet. Lightly spray or brush with a small amount of olive oil if desired for extra crispiness.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F and the burger is firm and slightly crispy on the outside.
Toast the whole wheat bun, then layer with fresh spinach and tomato slices.
Assemble the burger by placing the crispy baked turkey patty on the bun, adding any additional desired condiments, and serve hot.
