INGREDIENTS
4 oz Lean Ground Turkey
1 oz Part-Skim Mozzarella Cheese
1/4 cup Whole Wheat Breadcrumbs
1 large Egg White
Olive Oil Cooking Spray
1/2 tsp Garlic Powder
1/2 tsp Onion Powder
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
In a medium bowl, gently mix the lean ground turkey with the egg white, breadcrumbs, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper until just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the burger tender.
Divide the turkey mixture into two equal portions. Flatten each portion into a thin patty.
Place a slice of mozzarella cheese in the center of one patty, then cover with the remaining patty. Press the edges firmly together to seal the cheese inside, forming a stuffed burger.
Place the stuffed burger seam side down onto the prepared baking sheet. Lightly spray the top of the burger with olive oil cooking spray to help it crisp up during baking.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the exterior is golden and crispy.
Remove from the oven and allow the burger to rest for a few minutes before serving. Enjoy as is or with a side of fresh greens.
