Tips & Substitutions
For added moisture and flavor, consider substituting half of the ground turkey with shredded zucchini or mushrooms. If you don't have Worcestershire sauce, soy sauce can work in a pinch. To prevent the patties from sticking to the grill, lightly oil the grill grates before cooking. Keep an eye on the patties to avoid overcooking, as turkey can dry out quickly.
Serving Suggestions
These seasoned turkey patties pair beautifully with a refreshing 'New Potato' Salad for a light meal. Serve them on whole-grain buns with your favorite toppings like lettuce, tomato, and avocado. You might also consider adding a side of grilled vegetables or sweet potato fries for a satisfying and balanced meal.
Storage & Reheating
Store leftover turkey patties in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. To reheat, place them in a skillet over medium heat for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until warmed through. You can also microwave them for 1-2 minutes, but be careful not to overheat, as this can make them dry.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I freeze the turkey patties before grilling?
Yes, you can freeze the shaped patties before grilling. Place them in a single layer on a baking sheet, freeze until solid, then transfer to a freezer bag. They can be stored for up to 3 months. When ready to cook, thaw in the refrigerator overnight and grill as directed.
What can I substitute for bread crumbs?
If you're out of bread crumbs, crushed crackers or oats can serve as great alternatives. For a gluten-free option, use almond flour or gluten-free breadcrumbs. Both substitutes will help bind the patties while adding their unique flavors.
How can I tell when the turkey patties are done?
The safest way to check doneness is using a meat thermometer; the internal temperature should reach 165°F (74°C). If you don’t have one, ensure the patties are no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear. Cooking for about 5 minutes per side usually suffices.
