JALAPEñO TURKEY BURGERS!



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!

TURKEY BURGERS WITH JALAPENO CHEESE SAUCE



Turkey Burgers with Jalapeno Cheese Sauce image

This is a lighter version of a tasty burger that people enjoyed at a place I once worked. I substituted the beef with turkey and used low-fat cheese, but the results are tastier than the original crowd-pleaser. -Vicki Schurk of Hamden, Connecticut
