I lightened up one of my husband's favorite burger recipes, and although the original was good, we actually like this better! Ingredients:
2 jalapeno peppers, seeded and finely chopped |
2 tablespoons minced fresh cilantro |
2 tablespoons light beer or water |
2 dashes hot pepper sauce |
2 garlic cloves, minced |
1/2 teaspoon pepper |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper |
1 pound extra-lean ground turkey |
3 slices pepper jack cheese, cut in half |
6 dinner rolls, split |
6 tablespoons salsa |
6 tablespoons fat-free sour cream |
6 tablespoons shredded lettuce |
Directions:
1. In a large bowl, combine the first eight ingredients. Crumble turkey over mixture and mix well. Shape into six patties.
2. Using long-handled tongs, moisten a paper towel with cooking oil and lightly coat the grill rack. Grill burgers, covered, over medium heat or broil 4 in. from the heat for 2-3 minutes on each side or until a meat thermometer reads 165° and juices run clear.
3. Top with cheese; cover and grill 1-2 minutes longer or until cheese is melted. Serve on rolls with salsa, sour cream and lettuce. Yield: 6 servings.
