From the Healthy and Light section of July 2005 issue of Southern Living. Recipe description says any sweet crisp apple or pear may be substituted for the Fuji apple. I was suprised how spicy and flavorful these were. My husband really enjoyed them, and he hates turkey and all forms of fruit combined with meat. Go figure.
Ingredients:
1 large fuji apple
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 1/4 lbs lean ground turkey
1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh sage
1 3/4 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon dry crushed red pepper
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1 large egg, beaten
2 teaspoons olive oil (for cooking)
Directions:
1. Peel and core apple; coarsely shred apple with a hand grater. Place in a wire mesh strainer; drain well, pressing gently with paper towels.
2. Combine all ingredients except oil; stir until blended.
3. Shape mixture into 16 patties (about 2 tablespoons each).
4. Place patties on a wax paper-lined baking sheet.
5. Cover and chill 8 hours or overnight.
6. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Cook patties, in batches, about 6 minutes on each side or until browned and done.
