Combine all ingredients for the burgers and form into patties. Be sure to handle the meat lightly.

 2:

Heat a medium-sized skillet over medium heat. Add the olive oil and then the turkey burgers. Cook for about 5 to 7 minutes per side until the turkey is cooked through (an internal temperature reading should be 180°F). You may also cook these on an outdoor grill, coated with cooking spray.
