Herbed Turkey Burgers (Grill or Stove)

"Herbs de Provence" even have lavender mixed in the blend.

  • 1/4 cup couscous
  • 1/2 cup boiling water
  • 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 small onion
  • 1 stalk celery
  • 1 teaspoon herbs de provence teaspoons
  • Salt & freshly milled black pepper to taste
  • 1 pound lean ground turkey
 

Method

Bring water to a boil.  Stir in couscous and turn off heat immediately.  Cover and set aside to absorb all the water.  This takes about 5 minutes. If grilling the burgers, preheat grill to medium-high.

Heat olive oil in a large saute pan over medium heat. When hot, but not smoking, stir in onion and cook, stirring, for 1 minute. Add celery and cook, stirring, until softened, about 3 minutes. Add Herbs de Provence and salt and pepper to taste . Stir to blend, then remove from heat.  When mixture is calm, stir into the couscous.  Allow to cool for 5 minutes. Break up turkey and add to couscous.  Stir well to combine, but do not overmix. Lightly oil the palms of your hands and shape into 6 patties.

Stovetop: Coat a large heavy skillet lightly with oil, and set over medium-high heat for 2 minutes to heat the pan. Put in turkey patties, reduce heat to medium, and cook for 4 minutes. Turn to cook on the other side for 2 minutes. Cover and continue to cook until lightly browned about 4 minutes more.

Grilling: Oil the grill rack and grill the patties for 5 to 6 minutes per side.  Be careful to turn them gently so they don't break open. 

Serves: 6
