cookChipolte Turkey Burger

From: domesticate-me.com

1 lb lean ground turkey breast
2 chipotle peppers canned in adobo, finely chopped
2 garlic cloves, minced
½ tsp salt
4 sprouted grain hamburger buns, or whatever buns float your boat
For the guacamole:
1 avocado
1 tbsp lime juice
1 tbsp minced red onion
1 tbsp finely chopped cilantro
Salt to taste
For garnish: (optional)
4 slices turkey bacon
Bibb lettuce
1 beefsteak tomato, sliced
1 small red onion, sliced

Place the ground turkey, chipotle peppers, garlic, and salt in a mixing bowl. Use your hands to mix until all the ingredients are well combined. (Yes, this is a little gross, but it’s also fun.)

Form the meat into patties about 1-inch thick. You can do this in advance and then cover and refrigerate your patties until you’re ready to cook them.

Heat a grill pan or non-stick pan over medium heat. When hot, add your patties and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until cooked through. (I like to put the burger buns on the grill pan or in the toaster when the burgers have about 2 minutes left to cook.)

If using, cook your turkey bacon in a skillet while your burgers are cooking. When crispy, set on a paper-towel lined plate to drain.

Preparing your guacamole:

Scoop avocado into a small bowl and mash with a fork. Add the lime juice, red onion, and cilantro and mix well. Salt to taste.

Serve your burgers topped with guacamole, turkey bacon, and your favorite garnishes and go to town, dudes.
