Thai Peanut Turkey Burgers
from Cara's Cravings (slightly adapted from A Good Appetite)
8 oz ground turkey
1 medium carrot, shredded
1 large scallion, minced
1/4 tsp sesame oil
1 tsp chili garlic sauce
2 tbsp natural peanut butter
freshly ground salt & pepper
1/2 tsp ground ginger
2 tbsp light mayonnaise
handful of cilantro, finely minced
1-2 tsp chili garlic sauce
hamburger buns of your choice
mixed greens
Combine burger ingredients a mixing bowl and combine thoroughly. Using your fingers to gently blend the mixture together works best. Try not to squeeze everything through your fingers.
Heat a skillet, grill pan or outdoor grill over medium-high heat. Form the turkey mixture into two, tightly-packed patties. Cook for about 7-10 minutes per side, until cooked through.
In a small bowl combine mayonnaise, cilantro and 1-2 tsp chili garlic sauce. Serve burgers on buns with cilantro-chili mayo and greens.
