How to:<\/strong><\/p>\n

In a small bowl, stir mayonnaise and pesto until combined. Set aside.<\/p>\n

In a large bowl, using clean hands or a flexible spatula, mix turkey, egg, chopped basil, Parmesan, garlic powder, 1\/2 teaspoon salt, and 1\/4 teaspoon pepper just until combined. Divide mixture into 4 portions and shape into round patties about 1\/2″ thick.<\/p>\n

In a large metal or cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat, heat 1 tablespoon oil. Arrange 2 patties in skillet, spacing evenly apart, and cook until a browned crust forms on the bottom, about 3 minutes. Flip burgers, cover pan, and continue to cook until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center registers 155\u00b0, about 2 minutes more.<\/p>\n

Uncover pan and place 1 slice mozzarella on top of each burger. Cover and continue to cook until cheese is melty and burgers are cooked through (instant-read thermometer should register 165\u00b0), about 1 minute more. Transfer burgers to a plate. Repeat with remaining 1 tablespoon oil, patties, and mozzarella.<\/p>\n

Spread pesto mayo across bottom buns. Top with a burger and tomato slice; generously season tomatoes with salt and pepper. Drizzle with balsamic glaze and top with basil leaves. Close burgers with top buns.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
