These flavorful chicken and turkey patties are enhanced with a touch of applesauce and fresh herbs, making them a delightful and healthy meal option.
In a mixing bowl, combine the ground chicken, ground turkey, applesauce, chopped onion, parsley, Worcestershire sauce, and lemon juice.
Mix gently to avoid overworking the meat, which can make the patties dense.
Shape the mixture into evenly sized patties, about the size of your palm.
Use slightly wet hands to prevent the mixture from sticking.
Preheat a grill pan over medium heat and lightly oil the surface.
Ensure the pan is hot before adding the patties to achieve a good sear.
Cook the patties for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until fully cooked through.
Avoid pressing down on the patties while cooking to retain their juices.
Serve the patties warm with your choice of sides or on a bun with toppings.
Let the patties rest for a minute before serving to allow the juices to redistribute.
