Aloha Turkey Burgers


These are to die for.  I will never look at a burger the same.  I did make a few modifications to the recipe, such as leaving off the mayo to save a whole lot of calories.  

Ingredients

Sauce

1/4
cup mayonnaise
1
teaspoon Sriracha sauce

Burgers

1
lb ground turkey
1
teaspoon fresh grated gingerroot (or 1/4 tsp ground ginger powder)
1
clove garlic, grated (or 1/8 tsp garlic powder_
1
tablespoon soy sauce
1
teaspoon sesame oil (didn't have this, a little olive oil is fine, too)
4
slices fresh pineapple
4
hamburger buns, split
4
lettuce leaves
4
slices tomato
Sliced onion (I cooked the sliced onion with the burger to add a little flavor)

Directions

  • 1Spray gas or charcoal grill rack with cooking spray. Heat grill. Mix sauce ingredients; set aside. In large bowl, mix ground turkey, gingerroot, garlic, soy sauce and sesame oil. Shape mixture into 4 patties. (I cooked all of mine on the stove and it still turned out amazing!)
  • 2Place patties and pineapple slices on grill over medium heat. Cover grill; cook patties 8 to 10 minutes, turning after 5 minutes, until meat thermometer inserted in center of patties reads 160°F. Cook pineapple slices 8 to 10 minutes or until browned and slightly charred, turning once. Place burgers on bottoms of buns; top with lettuce, grilled pineapple, onion, sauce and tops of buns.
