2 teaspoons canola oil |
1 1/3 cups finely chopped peeled granny smith apple |
1 cup finely chopped celery |
1/4 cup finely chopped onion |
1 lemon |
1 1/2 pounds ground turkey |
1 teaspoon salt |
1 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper |
1 large egg white |
1 teaspoon hot pepper sauce (optional) |

Directions:
1. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add oil; swirl to coat. Add apple, celery, and onion; sauté 5 minutes or until tender. Remove from heat, and cool completely.
2. Grate rind and squeeze juice from lemon to measure 2 teaspoons rind and 1 tablespoon juice. Combine apple mixture, lemon rind, lemon juice, and turkey. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. Add egg; mix gently just until combined. Add hot pepper sauce, if desired. Shape into 6 (1/2-inch-thick) patties. Cover and refrigerate 2 hours or until thoroughly chilled.
3. Preheat grill to high heat. Place patties on grill rack coated with cooking spray. Grill 5 minutes on each side or until done. Place buns, cut side down, on grill rack. Grill 1 minute or until toasted.
