Instructions

  1. Hand mix ground turkey and other ingredients listed through the grated orange peel. Form into loosely to moderately packed patties (3/4 in thick).
  2. Prepare sauce by mixing all ingredients (can be prepared ahead).
  3. Grill burgers on medium heat; 3-4 min per side.
  4. Sauté onion in olive oil on medium high heat while burgers are cooking.
  5. Serve on sesame (or preferred buns), with generous amount of sauce and sautéed onions.

Notes

  • I personally love to add sautéed red onions on top, in addition to the orange ginger mayonnaise. They seem to finish off the flavor well.
  • We use sesame buns a lot at our house, but grilling a sour dough English muffin for the bun also tastes great.
