Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a large bowl, combine the ground turkey, egg, panko breadcrumbs, minced garlic, grated ginger, chopped green onions, sea salt, and black pepper. Mix gently.
  2. Shape the mixture into ¾-inch thick patties and let them rest for 5 minutes.
  3. In a small saucepan, whisk together the Thai sweet chili sauce, soy sauce, lime juice, and remaining minced garlic. Simmer over medium heat for 2-3 minutes.
