In a medium bowl, whisk shallot, garlic, red pepper flakes, vinegar, salt, and pepper together. Slowly drizzle in olive oil, whisking constantly until smooth. Mix in parsley, cilantro, and oregano.
Store chimichurri sauce in refrigerator until ready to use.

In a large bowl, combine ground turkey, breadcrumbs, egg, garlic, salt, and pepper. Gently knead until just combined and form mixture into 4 patties.
Preheat an outdoor grill to 375F OR prepare a large nonstick skillet to use indoors on stovetop by greasing well. Grill patties either on a sheet of nonstick aluminum foil or greased grill pan on grill (they tend to stick to the grill grates if you put them on directly) or cook in skillet on stovetop indoors. Grill burgers, flipping once until golden-brown and meat registers 165F (about 8-10 minutes of cooking)
Assemble burgers by placing a leaf of lettuce on each bun and top with burger, a slice of cheese, roasted red peppers, and a drizzle of chimichurri sauce. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Storing Instructions

Burgers are best if served immediately after assembly.
