The creamy chipotle sauce complements the smoky flavor from the grill in these turkey burgers. White meat could be substituted for dark, but the burgers won't be as juicy. Serve these with our Wild Rice Salad as a side dish.

Number Of Ingredients 14

1 1/2 pounds ground turkey, dark meat only
1 small red onion, minced
3 tablespoons finely chopped cilantro
2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
1/2 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup sour cream
1 canned chipotle chile en adobo plus 1 teaspoon adobo sauce
Vegetable oil, for brushing
8 thin slices Swiss cheese
4 sesame seed buns, split
4 red-leaf lettuce leaves
8 slices cooked hickory-smoked bacon
2 dill pickles, thinly sliced diagonally

Steps:

  • Place turkey, onion, cilantro, mustard, and 1 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl. Season with pepper, and mix gently. Shape into four 1/2-inch-thick patties, cover, and refrigerate until cold and firm, about 30 minutes.
  • Puree mayonnaise, sour cream, chile, and adobo sauce. Cover, and refrigerate for up to 1 day.
  • Preheat grill to medium-high. (If you are using a charcoal grill, coals are ready when you can hold your hand 5 inches above grill for just 3 to 4 seconds.) Brush grill with oil. Season both sides of patties with salt and pepper. Grill, flipping once, until cooked through, about 5 minutes per side. Top each burger with 2 cheese slices during final 30 seconds of cooking.
  • Grill buns, flat sides down, until toasted, about 30 seconds. Spread chipotle mixture on cut sides of bun halves. Divide lettuce, burgers, bacon, and pickles among bottom halves of buns. Sandwich with top halves.

TEX-MEX TURKEY BURGERS WITH CHIPOTLE MAYO



Tex-Mex Turkey Burgers with Chipotle Mayo image

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:

  • To ensure the turkey burgers remain moist and juicy, do not overmix the turkey mixture. Overmixing can result in tough burgers.
  • To achieve a flavorful and crispy outer layer, press the turkey burgers firmly into a hot skillet. Avoid moving the burgers around excessively while cooking, as this can prevent a nice crust from forming.
  • To create a creamy and flavorful chipotle sauce, blend mayonnaise, sour cream, chipotle peppers in adobo, lime juice, and cilantro until smooth. Adjust the amount of chipotle peppers and lime juice to suit your preferred level of spiciness and tanginess.
  • For a healthier alternative, use low-fat or non-fat mayonnaise and sour cream in the chipotle sauce.
  • If you prefer a milder chipotle sauce, remove the seeds from the chipotle peppers before blending.
  • Serve the turkey burgers immediately after cooking, topped with the creamy chipotle sauce, lettuce, tomato, and your favorite burger toppings.
