Thai Turkey Burgers
Ingredients:
- 1 lb. ground turkey
- 1 large carrot, shredded
- 2 tbsp. freshly chopped cilantro
- 2 green onions, sliced
- salt and pepper
- 4 kaiser rolls
Thai Sauce
- 1/2 sweet chili sauce
- 1/4 cup rice vinegar
- 2 tbsp. coconut palm sugar
- 1 tbsp. molasses
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tbsp. creamy peanut butter
- 1 tsp. knob of ginger, minced
- 1 lime, juiced
- 1/2 tbsp. soy sauce
Slaw
- 2 cups thinly sliced cabbage or romaine whites
- 2/3 cup shredded carrot
- 1/2 cup freshly chopped cilantro
- 1/2 cup chopped peanuts
In a large bowl, mix together the turkey, carrot, cilantro, green onion, salt, and pepper. I prefer to do this by hand, and then shape 4 burger patties once the meat is just combined. Be mindful not to over mix.
In a small bowl, mix together the slaw ingredients and place in the fridge. In a small sauce pan, whisk together all of the Thai sauce ingredients and cook on low, simmering to thicken for about 5 minutes. Set aside.
It's summer, so fire up your grill on high and grill the burgers on each side until cooked through; about 4 minutes on each side (every grill is different).
Remove the cooked burgers and set aside while you grill your buns. Simply place them on the grill for 30 seconds to 1 minute to get some nice grill marks and then remove.
To serve, place a burger patty onto a bun bottom and top with the slaw and some of the thickened Thai sauce. Top with the other half of the bun and serve hot.
