Submitted by scancan

"These are easy and taste so good; these aren't like those bland burgers that require tons of topping to cover up the taste."

• 1 1⁄2 1 1/2 lbs ground turkey or 1 1/2 lbs ground chicken

• 2 tablespoons ketchup
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1 1⁄2 teaspoons ground cumin
• 1 tablespoon brown sugar (optional)
• salt and pepper

directions

1. Sauté finely chopped onions on low flame (if you do this step too quickly by using a higher flame your onions will not become tender) with several tablespoons of oil until nicely browned and caramelized (soft but don't over brown).
2. In a large bowl mix together the remaining ingredients with the caramelized onions.
3. Cook the burgers on a medium flame in a frying pan or barbecue until nicely browned.

Excellent mix of flavors in this burger. Only made two but was great with corn on the cob.

A great tasting easy recipe. It's essential to caramalise those onions though!
