Apple-Cheddar Turkey Burgers

Submitted by Chez Loieur

"This recipe is a little bit of a twist on the turkey burger. The apples are really great in this dish!"

 

• Ready In: 25mins
• Ingredients: 12
• Serves: 4

ingredients

• 907.18 g ground turkey
• 4 scallions, finely chopped
• 78.78 ml flat leaf parsley
• 4.92 ml poultry seasoning
• 29.58 ml olive oil
• 1 granny smith apple
• 8 slice extra-sharp cheddar cheese
• 59.14 ml whole cranberry sauce
• 29.58 ml grainy mustard
• 4 sandwich-size english muffins
• lettuce
• salt and pepper

directions

1. In a bowl, combine turkey, scallions, parsley, poultry seasoning, salt and pepper. Form into four patties, pressing your thumb in the middle of each to prevent it from bulging.
2. In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the patties and cook for 6 minutes on each side for medium. Top each with 3 apple slices and 2 cheese slices, tent the pan with foil and cook until the cheese melts, 1 to 2 minutes.
3. In a small bowl, mix together cranberry sauce and mustard, slather on muffin tops. Pile some lettuce on muffin bottoms, and set the burgers in the middle!

I do most of the cooking for the family and am always in need of new reasonably healthy meal ideas. Intrigued by this recipe's ingredients and feeling adventurous, I decided to give it a shot. Boy was I surprised. The blend of flavors is really fantastic, very tasty indeed! Although the recipe as-is is definitely a keeper, I think next time I'll try it with ground pork as I think the flavors may blend even better.
