KNIFE-AND-FORK CHILI TURKEY BURGERS



Knife-and-Fork Chili Turkey Burgers image

Rachel brought these outrageously different burgers to me one afternoon while I was hard at work on this book. Turkey is an especially lean meat, so you really have to add some moisture to it; Rachel's done that here by using veggies. She made a lot of these, like we always do, to be sure we have leftovers -- and I couldn't stop eating them for the next two days! Now, five years after we were introduced to eating low-carb, I've all but forgotten that burgers once came with a bun!

Time 30m

Yield 5 servings (2 burgers each)

Number Of Ingredients 20

2 1/2 pounds ground turkey
1 cup shredded sharp Cheddar
1/2 cup finely chopped red bell pepper
1/4 cup finely chopped red onion
1 tablespoon Quick and Easy Sugar-Free Ketchup, recipe follows
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Pinch cayenne pepper
1 large egg, beaten
2 tablespoons vegetable oil
10 tablespoons mayonnaise
10 red leaf lettuce leaves
10 tomato slices
10 onion slices
10 pickle spears
8 ounces no-sugar-added tomato sauce
6 ounces no-sugar-added tomato paste
2 tablespoons white vinegar
1/4 cup sugar substitute (recommended: Splenda)

Steps:

  • Make the Burgers: Mix all the ingredients together with your hands, except the oil, in a bowl.
  • Divide the meat mixture into 10 equal-sized patties.
  • Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Working in batches, cook the burgers, turning once, until lightly browned and cooked through, about 7 minutes per side. (An instant-read thermometer inserted in the center of the thickest burger should read at least 165 degrees F.)
  • Divide the burgers among plates--2 to a plate. Dollop each serving with mayonnaise and stack lettuce, tomato, onion, and pickle on top.
  • Mix all ingredients together in a small bowl. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

LOW CARB KNIFE AND FORK CHILI TURKEY BURGERS RECIPE - (4/5)



Low Carb Knife and Fork Chili Turkey Burgers Recipe - (4/5) image

Provided by aerin8

Number Of Ingredients 12

Cooking oil spray
2 1/2 pounds fresh ground turkey
1 cup shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
1 large egg
1/2 cup finely diced red bell pepper
1/4 cup finely diced red onion
1 tablespoon no-sugar-added ketchup
1 tablespoon chili powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
Pinch of cayenne pepper
Your favorite burger fixings

Steps:

  • 1 Spray a large sauté pan with cooking oil and set aside. (I use an indoor nonstick electric pancake griddle and make them all at once! And make them "slider" size for fun--the sliders are easy to make on the griddle too!) 2 Place all of the ingredients, except the extra fixings, into a bowl and mix well with your hands. (You may want to wear plastic gloves, since the chili powder may turn your hands red.) 3 Form the meat mixture into 10 patties. 4 Cook the turkey burgers in the sauté pan over medium-high heat for 6 to 7 minutes on each side, until completely cooked throughout. (Poultry MUST be fully cooked. No medium-rare for these patties!) 5 Serve as a meal with the traditional burger toppings or use your own low carb favorites! HELPFUL HINTS These can also be grilled; just make sure that the grill is preheated well and that you do not try to flip the burgers until they are well-marked or they stick to the grates.
