Key West Recipe

Directions for Preparing Key West Turkey Burger

1. 1

   Prepare the Glaze

   In a small saucepan, combine maple syrup and bourbon. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cook until slightly thickened, about 10 minutes. Set aside.

2. 2

   Make the Turkey Patties

   In a large bowl, mix ground turkey, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder until well combined. Form into 4 equal patties.

3. 3

   Caramelize the Onions

   Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add sliced onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and caramelized, about 15-20 minutes.

4. 4

   Grill the Turkey Patties

   Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. Cook turkey patties for about 5-6 minutes per side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).

5. 5

   Grill the Pineapple

   During the last few minutes of cooking, place pineapple rings on the grill and cook for about 2-3 minutes per side until grill marks appear.

6. 6

   Prepare the Chili Garlic Aioli

   In a small bowl, mix mayonnaise with chili garlic sauce until fully combined.

7. 7

   Assemble the Burgers

   Toast the burger buns if desired. Spread chili garlic aioli on the bottom half of each bun. Place the turkey patty on top, followed by the grilled pineapple and caramelized onions. Top with the other half of the bun and serve.
