Back to TopThis recipe is super easy and VERY flavorful! Don't skip the tomato jam - it is quick and simple to make and really adds a lot to this burger. I've used ground turkey and ground chicken and both work well. The only omission I make is the black olives. I don't care for them but I just add them on top for anyone who wants them. I make this recipe at least once a month and it always gets high praise.

My favorite turkey burger recipe! SO MUCH flavor. I love the addition of the olives. This recipe is a breeze when using a food processor.

OMG! These are delicious....you won't be disappointed! I made them exactly as written including the tomato jam. The jam is very quick and easy and adds a great flavour to the burger. It also lasts quite long in the fridge if you want to use if for other dishes or make the burgers again the following week. You just can't go wrong with this recipe!!

These burgers are delicious. I follow the recipe exactly. You MUST make the tomato jam to go with!

These are pretty fantastic. I ended up making the recipe as written, then cooking a test batch to taste for seasonings. Like others, I decided the onions needed sauteing prior to mixing with meat. I also used half organic chicken breast and thigh meat instead of turkey. I added more olives, feta and rosemary then called for. Freeze nicely.

What wonderful flavors with turkey! I add a bit more feta to keep the burgers moist. I've made it several times and it's so good; I like this better than any hamburger.

Spectacular! Even without the jam. I can't imagine they would be the same "burger" with green stuffed olives instead of Kalimata. Try them once just as written. I was "generous" with the rosemary and the feta, but it was truly one of the best non-beef burgers I've ever had, let alone made. The Tomato Jam is a nice addition, but for just a week-night dinner, great without. I serve without a bun for hubby's low-carb diet and just a salad on the side.

These are outstanding! Everyone was obsessed with them at a cookout I hosted, even die-hard beef burger guys! The tomato jam is a must.

Wow these were good. I used goat cheese and almond stuffed green olives instead. As well, I minced a yellow onion finely and microwaved 2/3 c for a double recipie with a tsp of water for one minute. before adding.

Just made these substituting the feta with a parmesan because that's all I had. Delicious and very easy to make. I definitely see making this part of the meal rotation especially since you can freeze any remaining burgers for the week, etc.

YUM! Hubby said it was the best turkey burger ever. I changed it up a bit for my Mediterranean man. I didn't have any Kalamata olives so I used garlic stuffed green olives instead. I also added about a cup on Panko bread crumbs. Keeping with my Mediterranean theme, we used traditional hummus instead of the normal burger condiments.

Tried this last night, and it was a big winner, truly excellent. My first time with ground turkey in anything and what a great introduction. Delicious without the jam. The tomato jam was unremarkable by itself, but an incredible match/addition to the burger. Will be on the next menu with friends. Thanks!!

very tasty - use low fat feta and it would be extremely healthy. will certainly make it again.

I was worried about the patties falling apart but they didn't. I suspect the olive oil holds them together. Onions have to be finely chopped. This was an excellent, light, tasty burger which I make regularly now.
