Ingredients
- 1 lb ground turkey
- 1 tsp Chinese five spice powder
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1/2 tsp onion powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 4 hamburger buns
- 4 slices of cheese

Directions
- In a bowl, combine the ground turkey, Chinese five spice powder, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all the ingredients are evenly incorporated.
- Divide the turkey mixture into four equal portions and shape them into patties.
- Preheat a grill or a skillet over medium heat. If using a skillet, add a drizzle of oil to prevent sticking.
- Place the turkey patties on the grill or skillet and cook for about 6-8 minutes per side, or until they are cooked through and reach an internal temperature of 165°F.
- During the last few minutes of cooking, place a slice of cheese on top of each patty to allow it to melt.
- While the patties are cooking, lightly toast the hamburger buns on the grill or in a toaster.
- Once the patties are cooked and the cheese is melted, remove them from the heat.
- Assemble the burgers by placing a turkey patty on each bottom bun. Top with lettuce, tomato, and your favorite condiments. Place the top bun on the condiments and press gently to hold the burger together.
- Serve the five spice turkey cheeseburgers immediately and enjoy!
