Basil Turkey Burgers

Read a comment about it not holding together, so I added an egg. Also, added a large clove of garlic and a little extra fresh basil for added flavor. Served it with garden-fresh tomato slices. Came out great! Husband really liked them and wants me to make again exactly like I did tonight.

I made this recipe years ago as a first attempt at making turkey burgers. I found the overall result to be fairly bland, with the basil mayonnaise providing the primary flavor while the turkey itself lacked much seasoning. I prefer recipes I've used where the turkey itself was mixed with seasonings or condiments. These also didn't stay together well for me.

This was my first stab at turkey burgers. As we try to cut the red meat it was great to find a recipe that was very tasty, easy and that both my husband and I both liked. I added more Basil, a clove of fresh garlic and a dash of soy sauce. I had no problem with them holding their shape. We use a "Big Green Egg". I put them on the grill, and turned them once with no problem. Thanks!

THIS WAS AWESOME. But we did it a little differently: instead of using the basil- mayo as a topping, we mixed both the mayo and the basil into the turkey--amazing flavor this way. We also seared each side the patties in a frying pan with some olive oil to keep them from falling apart on the grill. I had mine on a multigrain sandwich thin (arnold), which allowed the flavor of the burger to really shine. My other had his on a roll with some mayo with some garlic paste mixed in. Also, red leaf lettuce was our selection for greenery. Good luck!

Very good burgers. I gave it a four star because it was a little bland tasting. I will make them again and probably add some garlic a more basil. The mayo/basil spread was delicious!

This was really good - I'll definitely make again. I added a little more basil and some garlic powder and broiled the burgers - they held together fine.

Loved these moist and flavorful burgers! My husband really enjoyed it with the basil mayo topping! We've made this one several times since finding it here. Thanks!

These are absolutely wonderful! Anyone who likes basil will love these burgers.

Easy and delicious! I put it on a toated wheat bun and topped it with a fresh slice of mozzerella cheese. MMM... just like a caprese salad!

These burgers were delish! I mixed everything a day before and shaped patties before cooking AMAZING! My first turkey and certainly not my last.

This was so good! Even my husband who isnt a big turkey burger fan enjoyed it. I followed the recipe exactly aside from serving it on whole wheat sandwich thins instead of buns. Might also be good with some sharp cheddar on top!!

Great and they were so moist. I did not care for the mayo but the burgers were great

made with pork. pretty good. will try with turkey next time.
