Cooking Instructions
- 1
Prepare the Turkey Mixture
In a mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey, paprika, cayenne pepper, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly incorporated.

Shape the Patties
Divide the turkey mixture into four equal portions and shape them into burger patties, making a slight indentation in the center of each patty to prevent puffing while cooking.

While the patties are cooking, slice the burger buns in half and toast them lightly if desired.
