Ingredients

Scale

1 pound lean ground turkey (93% lean)
1/2 cup plain breadcrumbs
1 large egg
1/4 cup finely chopped onion
1 tsp garlic powder
1/2 tsp salt (to taste)
1/4 tsp black pepper (to taste)
6 slider buns
6 slices cheese (optional)
lettuce leaves (optional)
tomato slices (optional)

Instructions

Gather all ingredients and preheat your grill or skillet to medium heat.
In a large bowl, mix together ground turkey, breadcrumbs, onion, egg, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until combined.
Shape the mixture into small patties about one inch thick (yielding approximately 6-8 sliders).
Cook patties on the grill or skillet for about 5 minutes per side or until they reach an internal temperature of at least 165°F (74°C). Add cheese slices during the last minute of cooking to melt.
Assemble each slider by placing a patty on a bun and topping with lettuce and tomato slices. Add condiments as desired.
Serve immediately while hot.
