Preparation
Step 1
Preheat a grill or stovetop grill pan over medium heat.
Step 2
In a mixing bowl, combine the ground organic lean turkey meat, chopped fresh oregano, minced garlic, and a pinch of salt and pepper. Mix well to distribute the herbs and seasonings throughout the turkey meat evenly.
Step 3
Divide the turkey mixture into four portions and shape them into burger patties.
Step 4
Lightly coat the zucchini slices with olive oil spray on both sides. Season the slices with a touch of salt and pepper.
Step 5
Place the turkey burger patties on the preheated grill. Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they are cooked through.
Step 6
While the turkey burgers are grilling, place the zucchini slices on the grill.
Step 7
Grill the zucchini slices for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are tender and have grill marks.
Step 8
Once the turkey burgers and zucchini slices are cooked, assemble the burgers by using two grilled zucchini slices as the “buns.”
Step 9
Top the turkey burgers with your preferred IP friendly toppings, such as tomato, onion, lettuce, or any other approved toppings.
Step 10
Enjoy!
