Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Bacon

    In a skillet over medium heat, cook the bacon strips until crispy. Remove from the skillet and drain on paper towels.

  2. 2

    Mix the Turkey

    In a large bowl, combine ground turkey, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.

  3. 3

    Form Patties

    Divide the turkey mixture into 4 equal portions and shape them into burger patties.

  4. 4

    Cook the Patties

    In the same skillet used for the bacon, add olive oil and heat over medium-high heat. Cook the turkey patties for about 5-6 minutes on each side or until they are cooked through and reach an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).

  5. 5

    Add Cheese

    During the last minute of cooking, place shredded cheddar cheese on top of each patty and cover the skillet to melt the cheese.

  6. 6

    Assemble the Burgers

    Toast the burger buns if desired. Place a lettuce leaf on the bottom half of each bun, followed by the turkey cheddar patty, crispy bacon, and a slice of tomato. Top with the other half of the bun.

  7. 7

    Serve

    Serve immediately with a lunch side of your choice.
