Jalapeño Turkey Burgers! image

I love a burger with a little kick to it and these juicy burgers have one! I use 85% lean ground turkey so the burger has enough fat so that it doesn't dry out.

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 pound ground turkey, I prefer 85% lean, it has more fat which makes for a better burger! If your ground turkey has excess liquid, be sure to set on paper towels to remove the juices.
1/2-3/4 of one jalapeño pepper, minced (I like it hot so I use 3/4)
1 medium size shallot, peeled and minced
zest of one lime
2 Tablespoons chopped cilantro
1 teaspoon paprika
1 teaspoon cumin
1/2 a teaspoon sea salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
guacamole
pico de gallo
poached egg

Steps:

  • Note: The ground turkey I buy is the consistency of hamburger. If yours seems to have extra liquid, set on paper towels to drain juices.
  • Place turkey, herbs, spices and lime in bowl and use hands to mix well.
  • Form into four patties.
  • Place pan on medium heat.
  • Add olive oil to bottom of pan.
  • When pan is hot, place patties in pan and cook for about 5 minutes each side or until cooked through.
  • Top with guacamole, pico de gallo and poached egg if desired!

Jalapeno and Cheddar Stuffed Turkey Burgers image

Provided by MariaMiller

Categories     Poultry

Time 35m

Yield 5 burgers, 5 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

20 ounces ground turkey breast, extra lean
1/4 cup dry breadcrumbs, unseasoned
1 egg
2 green onions, finely chopped
2 teaspoons garlic, minced (store bought)
2 -3 tablespoons barbecue sauce
1 teaspoon Mrs. Dash seasoning mix
1/2 teaspoon black pepper, coursely ground
5 tablespoons fat free shredded cheddar cheese
5 teaspoons diced jalapenos (or Giuliano Jalapeno Spread)

Steps:

  • In a large bowl, mix together the first 8 ingredients (turkey - pepper). If the turkey mixture is too wet, you can add in some more bread crumbs.
  • Lay out wax paper for forming the patties. Scoop mixture out by 1/4 cup then adjust if necessary so you have 10 equal sized mounds.
  • Form into 10 patties, with 5 of them being slightly larger than the others (to cover the filling).
  • On five of the patties, spread one tsp of the Giuliano Jalapeno Spread then top with shredded cheddar cheese.
  • Top with remaining 5 patties and press the edges to seal.
  • Patties will be piled up in the middle, so press in the middle to flatten.
  • Grill until cooked through (about 12-15 minutes).

Tips:

  • Use fresh ingredients whenever possible: Fresh ingredients will give your burgers the best flavor and texture.
  • Don't overmix the meat: Overmixing the meat will make the burgers tough.
  • Cook the burgers over medium heat: Cooking the burgers over medium heat will help them cook evenly without burning them.
  • Don't press down on the burgers while they are cooking: Pressing down on the burgers will release the juices and make them dry.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure that the burgers are cooked to your desired doneness: The internal temperature of the burgers should reach 165 degrees Fahrenheit for medium-rare, 170 degrees Fahrenheit for medium, and 175 degrees Fahrenheit for well-done.

Conclusion:

Jalapeno Swiss Turkey Burgers are a delicious and healthy alternative to traditional beef burgers. They are easy to make and can be cooked on the grill, in a skillet, or in the oven. Serve them on a bun with your favorite toppings, such as lettuce, tomato, onion, and pickles. You can also add a dollop of sour cream or guacamole for extra flavor.
