Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a glass baking dish with aluminum foil.

  2. Bring water and quinoa to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until quinoa is tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Let cool.

  3. Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook and stir onion until translucent, about 5 minutes. Add garlic, cook until fragrant, about 1 minute.

  4. Combine cooked quinoa, onion mixture, 1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce, eggs, barbeque sauce, hot sauce, seasoned salt, and black pepper in a large bowl. Whisk together. Add ground turkey and mix well with hands. Form patties and place in the prepared baking dish.

  5. Mix remaining 1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce and brown sugar together in a bowl to make a paste. Spoon on top of the patties.

  6. Bake patties in the preheated oven until no longer pink in the center, 35 to 45 minutes.
