Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your grill or stovetop grill pan to medium-high heat, around 400°F, for about 10 minutes.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine ground turkey, breadcrumbs, grated parmesan cheese, and chopped red onion. Drizzle olive oil and mix gently.
- Add chili powder, ground cumin, garlic powder, paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Fold until evenly distributed.
- Incorporate the egg into the mixture and mix until combined.
- Shape the mixture into four equal patties, about ¾ inch thick, making a slight indentation in the center.
- Grill the patties for 5 to 6 minutes on one side until golden brown, then flip and grill the other side for another 5 to 6 minutes until cooked through.
- Toast the hamburger buns cut-side down on the grill for 1 to 2 minutes until lightly browned.
- Assemble the burgers with salsa on the bottom bun, topped with a patty, sliced avocado, and cilantro.
- Serve immediately with sweet potato fries or a fresh salad.

Notes
Use a meat thermometer to check for an internal temperature of 165°F. Avoid overmixing to keep burgers tender. Let patties rest before serving for juicy results.
