Number Of Ingredients 21

2 tablespoons salted butter
3 medium Vidalia onions, halved and thinly sliced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 pound Roma tomatoes (about 5 tomatoes)
1 clove garlic, minced
1/3 cup firmly packed dark brown sugar
2 tablespoons vegetable stock
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves
1 pound ground turkey (not breast)
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 large egg, lightly beaten
Nonstick cooking spray, for the griddle
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
One 12-count package Hawaiian rolls, split
Two 3.5-ounce logs goat cheese, sliced
2 cups baby arugula
1 pint multicolor cherry tomatoes

Steps:

Make the Vidalia onion-tomato jam: Heat the butter in a large skillet over medium heat until the butter is melted. Add the onions, then season with a little salt and cook, stirring frequently, until they are golden brown and soft, about 20 minutes.
Meanwhile, cut the tomatoes in half crosswise. Scoop out the tomato seeds with a spoon and discard the seeds. Chop the tomatoes. Stir the tomatoes, garlic, brown sugar, vegetable stock and vinegar into the softened onions. Reduce the heat to low and cook until the onions are caramelized, the tomatoes are very soft and the mixture is syrupy, 20 to 25 minutes. Season with salt and pepper and stir in the thyme. Set aside.
Make the turkey burger sliders: Gently combine the ground turkey, mustard, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder and egg in a medium bowl. Shape the mixture into twelve 2 1/2-inch patties.
Heat a lightly greased griddle over medium-high heat. Sprinkle the patties lightly with salt and pepper. Add the patties and cook until they are done and a thermometer registers 165 degrees F, 2 to 3 minutes on each side.
To assemble the sliders, place the patties on the bottoms of the Hawaiian rolls. Top with the goat cheese, some of the Vidalia onion-tomato jam, arugula and the roll tops. Pierce the cherry tomatoes with wooden toothpicks into the tops of the rolls.
