TURKEY & WHITE BEAN BURGERS RECIPE



Turkey & White Bean Burgers Recipe image

Provided by Margannl

Number Of Ingredients 11

1/2 cup canned small white beans, rinsed and drained
3 tablespoons olive oil
1/2 clove garlic, minced
2 tablespoons finely diced red bell pepper
3 tablespoons plain dried breadcrumbs
1 1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1 large egg
1 tablespoon thinly sliced chives
1/2 pound ground turkey
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
8 slices (1/2 inch thick) good country bread (like ciabatta), toasted

Steps:

  • Combine the white beans, 1 tablespoon of the olive oil, and the garlic in a large bowl. Using a fork, lightly smash the beans and mix with the oil and garlic until blended. Add the red pepper, breadcrumbs, Worcestershire sauce, egg, and chives. Mix until blended. Crumble the ground turkey and add it to the bowl, along with 1/2 tsp. salt and a generous sprinkling of pepper. Gently mix with a fork or your hands until just blended; don't overmix or the burgers will be tough. Fill a medium bowl with water, moisten your hands, and shape the meat into four patties about 3 inches in diameter and 3/4 inch thick. Heat the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Cook the burgers until the bottoms are browned, 4 to 5 minutes. Flip the burgers and continue cooking until they're firm to the touch and register 165°F on an instant-read thermometer, another 5 to 8 minutes. Serve immediately on the toasted bread.

BLENDED BEEF, WHITE BEAN AND SQUASH BURGERS



Blended Beef, White Bean and Squash Burgers image

This smoky, juicy burger is a three-in-one combination of a classic beef burger, a veggie burger and a bean burger. It's a delicious and easy way to cut down on meat while still getting lots of satisfying flavor. After you've tried this version, put your own spin on it by subbing in your favorite spice blend instead of the paprika, garlic and onion powder used here.

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h

Yield 4 burgers

Number Of Ingredients 14

3/4 cup canned (drained and rinsed) white navy beans
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 1/4 teaspoons garlic powder
1 1/4 teaspoons onion powder
8 ounces peeled butternut squash, cut into 1/2-inch dice (about 2 cups)
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
12 ounces 92 percent lean ground beef
2 tablespoons canola oil
4 slices sharp Cheddar, each slice cut in half
4 large sesame seed hamburger buns, lightly toasted
4 leaves green leaf lettuce
4 thick slices beefsteak tomato
Ketchup, Dijon mustard and mayonnaise, for serving

Steps:

  • Position a rack in the center of the oven and preheat to 425 degrees F.
  • Add the beans, smoked paprika, garlic powder and onion powder to a large bowl. Stir to combine, then set aside.
  • Combine the butternut squash, olive oil, a large pinch salt and a couple grinds black pepper on a small baking sheet. Toss to coat and spread in an even layer. Roast in the oven until the squash is tender and deeply browned in spots, about 25 minutes, rotating the baking sheet once halfway through the cooking time.
  • Add the squash to the bean mixture and stir to combine. Allow to cool completely.
  • Once cooled, use a fork to roughly mash the squash and beans. It should be mostly smooth but with small chunks of squash and beans throughout. Add the beef and 1/2 teaspoon salt and use your hands to mix until combined. Divide into 4 portions and form each into a patty about 4 inches in diameter and a little more than 1/2 inch thick.
  • Heat a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat. Once the pan is hot, add the canola oil and swirl to coat. Season the patties liberally on both sides with salt and pepper and add to the pan. Cook until deeply browned and a crust is formed on the first side, 3 to 4 minutes. Flip carefully and cook until the second side is also browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Layer 2 pieces of the cheese (1 slice total) on top of each patty, then cover the pan and cook until cheese is just melted, about 1 minute.
  • Layer the patties, lettuce and tomato on the toasted hamburger buns and serve ketchup, mustard and mayonnaise alongside.

WHITE BEAN BURGERS



White Bean Burgers image

These have a delicate texture and a wonderful savory taste. They're a little tricky to turn, as they can fall apart. Don't make them too thick and use an offset spatula, and it will be easier for you. They should be cooked on a flat griddle or pan; don't try to grill them on a barbecue.

Provided by Martha Rose Shulman

Categories     dinner, easy, weekday, burgers, main course

Time 2h30m

Yield 6 patties

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 cans white beans, drained and rinsed
2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 small onion, finely chopped
Salt to taste
2 to 3 large garlic cloves (to taste), green shoots removed, minced
2/3 cup finely grated carrot
3 tablespoons freshly squeezed lemon juice
1/4 cup finely chopped parsley
2 teaspoons minced fresh sage or thyme
1/2 cup fresh bread crumbs
1 egg, beaten
Freshly ground pepper to taste
Whole grain hamburger buns and the condiments of your choice

Steps:

  • Heat 1 tablespoon of the olive oil in a medium-size skillet and add the onion. Cook, stirring, until tender, about 5 minutes. Add a pinch of salt, the garlic and the grated carrot, and continue to cook for another minute or two, until fragrant and the carrot has softened slightly. Remove from the heat.
  • In a food processor fitted with the steel blade, puree the beans with the lemon juice. Transfer to a bowl and stir in the onion mixture, the parsley, sage or thyme, the bread crumbs and the egg. Season to taste. Shape into patties, ½- to ¾-inch thick. Set on a parchment-covered baking sheet and cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 1 to 2 hours.
  • Heat the remaining oil in a large, heavy skillet or on a griddle over medium heat and brown the patties for 4 minutes on each side, being very careful when you turn them over. An offset spatula works well for this. Serve on whole grain buns, with the condiments of your choice.

  • Use a food processor to grind the beans: This will help to create a smooth, even texture for the burgers.
  • Season the burgers well: Use your favorite herbs and spices to flavor the burgers. Some popular options include garlic, onion, parsley, thyme, and cumin.
  • Cook the burgers over medium heat: This will help to prevent them from burning or drying out.
  • Serve the burgers on buns with your favorite toppings: Some popular options include lettuce, tomato, onion, cheese, and avocado.
