Creating these Jalapeño Cheddar Turkey Burgers is straightforward. Follow these steps for a successful outcome:

1. Prepare the Ingredients: Gather all the ingredients and chop the jalapeños and cilantro if using.
2. Mix the Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the ground turkey, cheddar cheese, jalapeños, breadcrumbs, cilantro, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until just combined; avoid overmixing to keep the burgers tender.
3. Form the Patties: Divide the mixture into four equal portions and shape them into patties. Make a small indentation in the center of each patty to prevent bulging while cooking.
4. Heat the Pan: In a skillet over medium heat, add olive oil. Allow the oil to heat up for about a minute.
5. Cook the Patties: Place the patties in the skillet and cook for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C).
6. Toast the Buns: In the last few minutes of cooking, add the burger buns to the skillet to toast them lightly.
7. Serve Hot: Once the patties are cooked through, remove them from the heat and let them rest for a minute.

These steps will ensure that your Jalapeño Cheddar Turkey Burgers turn out perfectly every time!
