Ingredients
- 1/2 red onion finely chopped
- 1 bell pepper any color, finely chopped
- 4 Tbs. minced fresh parsley
- 2 Tbs. minced fresh thyme
- 2 garlic cloves minced
- 3 Tbs. low-sodium soy sauce

Spray a skillet (preferably non-stick) with cooking spray. When hot, add turkey burgers so that there's an inch or so in between each (you'll probably need to cook in batches). Cook over medium-low heat for 5 minutes. Flip. Cover skillet and cook for another 5-10 minutes, until cooked throughout.

Recipe Notes
Freezing Instructions: Uncooked turkey burgers may be frozen in an airtight container of freezer bag to be used later. Simply add a piece of parchment or wax paper in between layers before freezing.
Cooking from Freezer: Turkey burgers can be defrosted and cooked as directed or cooked straight from freezer. To cook frozen burgers, cover immediately. Allow to cook for 10 minutes before flipping, recovering, and cooking until cooked throughout, another 10-15 minutes.
