Ingredients
Scale
For the Turkey Burgers:
- 1 lb ground turkey
- 1 egg
- ¾ c bread crumbs
- 2 garlic cloves, pressed or minced
- ¼ c green onion
- 1 T Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tsp minced fresh ginger
- Splash of orange juice
- 2 T grated orange peel
- 4 sesame buns
- Red onion, thinly sliced
For the Mayo Sauce:
- 1/2 cup mayonnaise
- 2 T Dijon mustard
- ½ tsp minced fresh ginger
- ½ tsp orange juice
- 1 T grated orange peel
- 2 T green onions, finely chopped
- 2 tsp honey
Instructions
- Hand mix ground turkey and other ingredients listed through the grated orange peel. Form into loosely to moderately packed patties (3/4 in thick).
- Prepare sauce by mixing all ingredients (can be prepared ahead).
- Grill burgers on medium heat; 3-4 min per side.
- Sauté onion in olive oil on medium high heat while burgers are cooking.
- 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.
