Ingredients

  • 2 pounds ground turkey
  • 1/2 cup minced red onion
  • 1/4 cup minced green onion (white and green parts)
  • 2 egg whites (whisked)
  • 1 teaspoon ground chili powder

  1. Preheat a grill to medium-high.

  3. Divide the mixture into six equal portions and shape them into burgers.
