Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 pound lean ground turkey
3 tablespoons tomato paste
3 tablespoons currants
2 tablespoons capers
1/2 teaspoon dried basil
1/2 teaspoon crushed fennel seeds
1/2 teaspoon salt
Vegetable oil cooking spray
1/2 cup grated Parmesan
4 ciabatta rolls, split
4 teaspoons balsamic vinegar
Sliced tomato (optional)

Steps:

  • In a bowl, mix turkey, tomato paste, currants, capers, basil, fennel seeds and salt. Form turkey mixture into four 3/4-inch-thick patties. Coat a grill rack or grill pan with cooking spray. Grill patties over medium-high heat until underside is well browned, about 7 minutes; flip and cook 5 minutes more. Top each patty with 2 tablespoons Parmesan; close lid or cover pan. Cook until internal temperature reaches 165°F, about 2 minutes. Brush bottom of each roll with 1 teaspoon vinegar; top with 1 burger, tomato, if desired, and other half of roll.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients: The better your ingredients, the better your burgers will be. Look for fresh ground beef, ripe tomatoes, and crisp lettuce.
  • Season your beef well: Don't be afraid to add plenty of seasonings to your beef patties. This will help them to develop a delicious flavor.
  • Cook your burgers over medium heat: This will help them to cook evenly and prevent them from becoming dry.
  • Don't overcook your burgers: Overcooked burgers are tough and dry. Cook them until they are just cooked through, about 4-5 minutes per side for medium-rare burgers.
  • Use a variety of toppings: The possibilities are endless when it comes to burger toppings. Try different combinations of cheese, vegetables, and sauces to find your favorite.

Conclusion:

Sicilian burgers are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. With their flavorful beef patties, fresh toppings, and fluffy buns, these burgers are sure to be a hit at your next party or cookout.
