How Long to Cook Turkey Burgers on Stove

Introduction

Turkey burgers are a great way to enjoy your favorite burger without all the grease. You can make them on your stove or grill if you follow these steps:

Instructions

To cook turkey burgers on the stove, you’ll need to start by warming a skillet over medium-high heat. Once it’s hot, add some oil and swirl it around in the pan. Next, place your turkey patties in the pan and turn down the heat to low. Cook for about 7 minutes per side (or until cooked through) before serving with your favorite toppings!

Prepare the turkey burgers.

To make the turkey burgers, you will need:

1 pound ground turkey (you can also use chicken or beef). You can substitute in beef or chicken if you want, but the flavor will be different. The amount of meat will depend on how many burgers you want to make; just keep in mind that they’ll shrink when cooked!
Salt and pepper for seasoning

Here’s what to do:

Put all of your ingredients into a bowl and use your hands to mix them together until well combined. If using frozen burgers, put them on a plate in the freezer for 30 minutes before adding any spices so they don’t fall apart while cooking later on when added directly into hot oil without any time for freezing beforehand

Preheat your stove to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.

Use a thermometer to measure the temperature, and set it aside so you can refer back to it later if necessary.

You’ll want to make sure that the stove is hot enough so that when you put your turkey burgers on there, they cook quickly and evenly without burning. The higher the temperature of your preheated stovetop, the faster this will happen!

Add oil to a pan and heat it on medium-high heat.

Add oil to a pan and heat it on medium-high heat. You will need about 2 tablespoons of oil for each burger, but you can use less if you have a non-stick pan. Don’t use butter or margarine; the fat will burn at high temperatures and give your burgers an unpleasant taste. Olive oil is also not recommended because it burns easily too, although some people say it gives their burgers added flavor (this author does not recommend using olive oil).

Once the oil is hot, add the turkey patties to the pan and turn the heat down to low.

When you’re ready to begin cooking, make sure the oil is hot enough. You don’t want to put your burgers in until the oil is hot enough–and if it’s too hot, they’ll burn before they cook through. If the oil isn’t hot enough, then they won’t get crispy on the outside like they should be!

To get an idea of how long it takes for your stovetop pan (or electric skillet) to heat up properly: Once preheated with no food in it, place a single drop of water onto its surface and allow it to evaporate completely before adding any meat patties or other food items; this will give you a good idea of how long each batch should take before being ready for flipping over onto their opposite sides so that both sides cook evenly throughout each cycle through this process.

Once done flipping them over once more after five minutes or so has elapsed since first adding them into heated oil within that same timeframe above mentioned earlier here now…

Cook until they are brown on one side and then flip them over and repeat with the other side.

Cook until they are brown on one side and then flip them over and repeat with the other side. The time it takes to cook depends on how thick your burger is, so make sure you adjust this recipe accordingly! If you’re cooking more than one turkey burger at once, be sure to use a larger pan or skillet so that they don’t overcrowd each other in the pan (this will lead to steaming rather than searing).

Keep flipping until they are done all around.

Once the burgers have been flipped, continue to cook until they are done all around. You can tell when they’re done by pressing down on one with your spatula. If it feels firm and springy, it is ready to be removed from heat. If it feels soft and spongy, keep cooking for another minute or so before testing again–you want them to be firm enough that they won’t fall apart when you try to flip them over again!

It’s important not to press down on these patties while they are cooking; this will make them denser than desired and ruin their texture in the end product. Also avoid flipping more than once during this process; doing so will only cause uneven cooking throughout each patty (which means some parts might get overcooked). Finally: don’t move them around too much in the pan either; if there is any nonstick coating involved here at all then consider yourself lucky because there won’t be any sticking issues anyways but still try not moving things around too much so that nothing falls apart before its time!

You can make turkey burgers on your stove or grill if you follow these steps

Turkey burgers are a great way to use leftover turkey. They’re also an easy meal to make if you have some extra ground turkey in the freezer or want to try something new for Thanksgiving. To make them on your stove, follow these steps:

Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat until it’s hot enough that water drops dance around in it (you can test this by sprinkling some drops of water into your pan). Add 2 tablespoons minced onion and cook until softened and fragrant, about 1 minute. Remove from heat and let cool slightly before continuing with step 2 below.*
Combine 1 pound ground turkey (dark meat works best), 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste with your hands; shape into patties no more than 3/4 inch thick.* Cook the patties until browned on one side (about 5 minutes), then flip them over using tongs or spatula; cook until second side is also browned but still juicy inside (another 5 minutes).

Conclusion

Now that you know how to cook turkey burgers on your stove, you can make them any time. They are easy to prepare and delicious!
