Salsa Verde Turkey Burger Recipes

SOUTHWEST TURKEY BURGERS

Steps:

• Combine turkey, eggs, onion, bread crumbs, 2 tablespoons oil, jalapenos, Worcestershire, mustard, paprika, chili powder, and cumin in a bowl. Form into 8 patties. Season lightly with salt and pepper.
• Heat remaining olive oil in a saute pan over medium to medium-high heat. Place patties in the hot pan and cover partially to help retain moisture, but not so much that the patties braise (boil). Cook until browned and halfway cooked through, about 4 minutes. Continue to cook until no longer pink and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads 165 degrees F (74 degrees C), about 3 minutes more.
• Serve patties on toasted buns with guacamole and salsa.

SUNNY SIDE BURGER WITH SALSA VERDE

Steps:

• Salsa Verde:
• Heat broiler. Toss tomatillos, onion, and jalapeños with oil on a foil-lined rimmed baking sheet; season with salt. Broil until blackened in spots and very soft, 12-15 minutes.

Firmly smash down on meat with a heavy metal spatula to create a craggy-edged 4"-diameter patty; season with salt and pepper. Cook, undisturbed, until deeply charred underneath, about 3 minutes. Flip and season other side with salt and pepper; cook to medium, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a plate and let rest.
• Carefully wipe out skillet with a paper towel, leaving only a light coating of oil. Set skillet over medium heat. Working in 2 batches, toast buns, cut side down, until golden brown, about 1 minute. Transfer to a clean surface.
• Heat remaining 2 Tbsp. oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium. Crack eggs into skillet and cook until whites are just set and edges are crisp, about 4 minutes. Season with salt.
• Spread insides of both tops and bottoms of buns with a heaping tablespoonful of salsa verde. Place a burger on each bottom bun, top with an egg, sunny side up, and close burger.
