The ingredients for Turkey Ricotta Burgers are:

1 1/4 pounds 93 percent lean ground turkey
1/2 teaspoon table salt
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 teaspoons Worcestershire sauce
1/2 cup ricotta cheese
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon vegetable oil or canola oil

Here is how you make Turkey Ricotta Burgers:

1. Transfer ground meat to medium bowl. Stir in salt, pepper, Worcestershire sauce, ricotta cheese, and mustard until blended, and divide meat into 4 portions. Lightly toss one portion from hand to hand to form a ball, then lightly flatten ball with fingertips into 1-inch-thick patty. Repeat with remaining portions.2a. To Cook Indoors: Heat a large, heavy skillet (preferably cast-iron or stainless steel with an aluminum core) over medium heat until very hot, 4 to 5 minutes. Swirl oil in pan to coat bottom, then add burgers. Cook over medium heat without moving burgers until bottom side of each is dark brown and crusted, 3 to 4 minutes. Turn burgers over; continue to cook until bottom side is light brown but not yet crusted, 3 to 4 minutes longer. Reduce heat to low, position cover slightly ajar on pan to allow steam to escape, and continue to cook 8 to 10 minutes longer, flipping burgers if necessary to promote deep browning, until center is completely cooked, or an instant-read thermometer inserted from the side of the burger into the center registers 160 degrees. Remove from pan and serve immediately.Number of Servings: 5Recipe submitted by SparkPeople user GRAMKNITS.
