- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 3 tablespoon minced fresh parsley or 1 tablespoon dried parsley flakes
- 2 tablespoons fresh sage or 2 teaspoons dried sage leaves
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon fennel seed, crushed
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- 1 1/2 lbs. lean ground turkey
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
In a bowl, combine the first 7 ingredients. Crumble turkey over mixture and mix well. Shape into twelve 3-inch patties.
In a large skillet, cook the patties in oil in batches over medium heat for 3-5 minutes on each side or until meat is no longer pink. Drain on paper towels if necessary.
FREEZE OPTION: Wrap each patty in plastic wrap; transfer patties to resealable freezer container. To use, unwrap patties and place on a baking sheet coated with cooking spray. Bake in a preheated 350 degree oven until heated through, about 15 minutes on each side.
