"This is from Everyday with RR. Yet another burger for me to try! :) Turkey can be used in place of the chicken."

I made 1/2 the amount of chicken patties which I actually made with turkey. This was about the right amount unless you have a lot more cabbage. My husband and I both really enjoyed the dish. Plus its easy.

Like a lot of RR's recipes, this one was fast and easy to do. I used regular soy sauce instead of tamari (because I didn't have it) and forgot to add the sesame seeds! :( We all really liked them, including my picky picky DD. I thought they were particularly yummy on potato bread with some of the hoisin and some of the cabbage. I scaled the recipe up, because I was having my parents over for dinner, and used some of the extra mixture to make potstickers. I can't wait to see how those turn out!
