TEX-MEX TURKEY BURGERS WITH CHIPOTLE MAYO
Ground turkey has it rough in the reputation department. It's notoriously dry and flavorless, especially in burger form, and it's usually only preferred to beef when healthiness is a factor. But not for long! We can finally take back the bad rap of crumbly turkey burgers everywhere with these moist and juicy Tex-Mex-inspired patties, all thanks to a humble can of creamed corn. On the flavor front, we've got spices, herbs, veggies, cheese, and a chipotle mayo, so there's no chance this formerly blank canvas is going to be a bland burger.

Tips:
- Choose the right ground turkey: Opt for ground turkey with a higher fat content (at least 8%) for juicier burgers. If using leaner ground turkey, add some olive oil or avocado oil to the mixture to prevent dryness.
- Use a light touch when mixing the ingredients: Overmixing can result in tough burgers. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Form the burgers gently: Handle the burger mixture gently to avoid compacting it, which can also lead to tough burgers.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the burgers, give them enough space in the pan so that they can cook evenly.
- Use a meat thermometer: To ensure that the burgers are cooked to your desired doneness, insert a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the burger. Cook until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) for well-done burgers or 155°F (68°C) for medium-well burgers.
- Let the burgers rest before serving: After cooking, let the burgers rest for a few minutes before serving. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the burgers, resulting in a more flavorful and juicy burger.
Conclusion:
These turkey burgers are a delicious and healthy alternative to traditional beef burgers. They are packed with flavor and can be customized to your liking. With the creamy chipotle sauce, they are sure to be a hit at your next BBQ or weeknight dinner. So fire up the grill and give them a try!
