By foodiva

Ingredients

• 1 1⁄2 lbs ground turkey
• 3 tablespoons sesame seeds
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 1 ⁄2 cup minced scallion, white and green parts both
• 2 -3 tablespoons minced cilantro
• 2 teaspoons pulverized garlic
• 2 tablespoons sesame oil
• salt
• 3 ⁄4-1 1⁄4 cup breadcrumbs, depends on how moist the turkey is
• fresh ground pepper
• oil, if desired (for cooking)

Preparation

Step 1

Mix togeter, gently. the turkey, sesame seeds, soy, scallions, cilantro, garlic, sesame oil, 1 teaspoon of salt, and bread crumbs.

Form into patties.

I usually mix all this together and make patties in the morning and leave in the refrigerator till I'm ready for them.

Sometimes that is the next day.

Brush with a little oil before grilling if desired.

Grill on the George Foreman, in a grill pan.

If you're using the outside grill increase the breadcrumbs a bit to insure they don't fall apart.
