Wonderfully spicy, moist and juicy. These are the best! I found this recipe on Simply Recipes and adjusted it to my taste. Great with sweet potato fries. Ingredients:
1 1/2 lbs ground turkey |
1/2 cup fresh breadcrumb |
3 tablespoons mayonnaise |
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives |
1 tablespoon worcestershire sauce |
1 1/2-3 teaspoons tabasco chipotle pepper sauce |
2 green onions, minced, white and green parts |
4 fresh basil leaves, thinly sliced |
1 teaspoon sea salt (or more) |
1/2 teaspoon fresh ground pepper (or more) |
4 hamburger buns, lightly toasted |
Directions:
1. Prepare your grill (either charcoal or gas) for direct high heat. Or right before cooking, heat a griddle or large cast iron frying pan on the stovetop.
2. Combine the turkey, bread crumbs, mayonnaise, chives, green onions, Worcestershire sauce, chili sauce, basil, salt and pepper in a large bowl and work the mixture with your hands to just mix. Do not over mix or the burgers will be tough. Form the mixture into 4 1-inch thick patties.
3. Season both sides of the patties with salt and pepper. Grill them for 5-7 minutes on each side, until the internal temperature of the patties reach 170°F on a meat thermometer.
4. Turkey burgers should be cooked through, not rare. Toward the end of the cooking, put the buns on the grill to toast for about a minute. Remove the burgers from the grill to a platter, cover and let rest for 5 minutes.
5. Serve with your favorite condiments.
