Mushroom Bacon Turkey Burgers

These tasty turkey burgers are prepared using a combination of pan searing and braising. It's a great method for cooking leaner ground meats like turkey and chicken because you don't have to worry about them drying out. These burgers are flavored with fresh thyme and topped with sautéed mushrooms, onions, and dill pickle slices. Served with a side of chips, they make a great meal – no grill required.
