📝 Preparation Steps
1
To make the basil mayo, in a small bowl, whisk together mayonnaise, basil, and lemon juice. Season to taste with salt and pepper (I like just a pinch each of salt and pepper).
lemon juice1 teaspoon
2
In a large bowl, combine ground turkey, feta cheese, onion, parsley, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper. (See note 2) Using a strong spatula or your hands (I like to wear latex gloves), mix well. Shape the mixture into 8 patties, about 5 ounces each.
3
For a gas grill:
4
Preheat grill over medium-high heat for ⏱️ 10 minutes and clean and oil grates. Grill the burgers directly over high heat for ⏱️ 5 minutes.
5
Flip the burgers, transfer to indirect heat, and continue cooking until an internal thermometer inserted into the middle of the burgers reaches 165 degrees, about 5 to ⏱️ 7 minutes longer. Serve in buns with lettuce, tomato, and the basil mayonnaise.
6
For a skillet:
7
Heat 1 tablespoon vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until just smoking. Add the burgers in a single layer (working in batches if necessary) and cook until the bottoms are browned, about ⏱️ 3 minutes.
8
Flip the burgers and continue to cook until light brown. Reduce heat to low, partially cover the pan, and continue to cook until an internal thermometer inserted into the middle of the burgers reaches 165 degrees, about 5 to ⏱️ 7 minutes longer. Serve in buns with lettuce, tomato, and the basil mayonnaise.
