Chipotle Turkey Burgers with Cheddar and Caramelized Onions


Fort Collins Adult Star Introductions

The Chipotle Turkey Burgers are a tasty change from regular turkey burgers. The chipotle pepper makes it smoky and spicy, and the caramelized onions make it sweet and add depth of flavor. Great for a summer barbecue or a filling dinner during the week.

Ingredients:

  • 1 lb ground turkey
  • 1 chipotle pepper in adobo sauce, minced
  • 1/2 cup breadcrumbs
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped onion
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • 4 burger buns
  • 4 slices cheddar cheese
  • 2 onions, thinly sliced
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar
  • Lettuce and tomato slices for garnish

Instructions:

Ground turkey, breadcrumbs, chopped onion, cilantro, cumin, garlic powder, salt, and pepper should all be mixed together in a bowl

Mix everything together well

Split the mixture in half and shape each half into a burger patty

Get a grill or grill pan hot, but not too hot

The turkey burgers should be cooked all the way through and have grill marks after 5 to 6 minutes on each side

Warm up the olive oil in a skillet over medium-low heat while the burgers are cooking

Add the sliced onions and cook, stirring every now and then, for about 15 to 20 minutes, until they get soft and caramelized

Add the brown sugar and balsamic vinegar to the onions that have been caramelized

Cook for two more minutes, until the sugar has dissolved and the onions are covered

Cover the grill and put a slice of cheddar cheese on top of each burger patty in the last minute of cooking

This will melt the cheese

On the grill, toast the burger buns for about one minute, until they get a little brown

Put a tomato slice and a lettuce leaf on the bottom bun of each burger

Then add a turkey burger patty with melted cheddar cheese on top of that

Add a lot of caramelized onions on top, and then put the top bun on top of that

Enjoy the hot Chipotle Turkey Burgers with Cheddar and Caramelized Onions
