Recipe type: Lean and Green

Serves: 3
Prep time: 20 mins
Cook time: 15 mins
Total time: 35 mins

 
Ingredients
  • 1 tablespoon Extra-virgin olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons of onion, cut into ¼-inch dice
  • ¼ teaspoon Kosher salt
  • 2 cloves garlic, smashed and finely chopped
  • 1½ pounds ground turkey – 98% lean so a serving is 7 ounces
  • 1 tablespoon soy sauce
  • 1 teaspoon fresh ginger, peeled and grated
  • ½ cup cilantro leaves, finely chopped

Instructions
  1. Preheat the oven to 200 degrees F to keep the first batch of burgers warm.
  2. For the burgers: Coat a large saute pan with olive oil. Add the onions, season with salt and bring to a medium-high heat. Cook the onions until they are soft and very aromatic, 7 to 8 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 1 to 2 minutes. Turn off the heat and let cool.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, combine the turkey, soy sauce, ginger, water, cilantro and the cooked onions and garlic. (Reserve the onion pan to cook the burgers in later.) Add one-quarter to one-half cup water; this will help the burgers stay nice and moist. Using your hands, squish everything together until they are really well combined.
  4. Make and cook a little tester patty to be sure that the turkey is really well seasoned. Re-season if needed. If the burger is missing salt add more soy or just give a little.
  5. When the burger mix is seasoned appropriately, form the mix into 4 equal size patties.
  6. Coat the saute pan with new olive oil and bring to a medium-high heat. Place the burgers in the pan. Be sure not to crowd the pan, if you need to work in batches go ahead! Cook the burgers for 5 to 6 minutes on each side.
