Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 30m

Yield 4 burgers, 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

1 1/3 lbs ground turkey breast
2 garlic cloves, finely chopped
1 large shallots or 1/4 red onion, finely chopped
2 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro (I usually add a bit more as I'm a cilantro lover)
1/2 small bell pepper, any color, seeded and finely chopped
1 serrano peppers or 1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and finely chopped
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 -2 teaspoon hot sauce
2 teaspoons McCormick's Montreal Brand steak seasoning
olive oil, for drizzling
4 cheese slices
4 kaiser rolls

Steps:

  • Chop your garlic and veggies. I throw all mine in my food processor and it makes easy work of this step.
  • Combine all ingredients through grill seasoning.
  • Divide mixture into 4 equal patties. Drizzle patties with olive oil to coat. Cook on grill or in skillet over med-high heat until done. (I've found that the veggies make this so moist that they're hard to overcook, although you'll still want to keep an eye on them).
  • Place sliced cheese over the patties the last two minutes of cooking.
  • OPTIONAL (but worth it): Slather with Black Bean Spread/Dip with Lime and Cilantro (recipe posted after this one). Enjoy the rest of the dip with tortilla chips with your burger.

  • Serve these patties with your favorite sides, such as rice, beans, or salad.
  • These patties can also be frozen for later use. Just cook them according to the recipe instructions, then let them cool completely. Place the patties in a freezer-safe container and freeze for up to 2 months.
