Turkey Burgers

Herb Aioli

Sweet & Sour Onion Jam

Shoestring Potatoes

Arugula

Method

Turkey Burgers

  1. 1

    Prepare the Turkey Patties

    In a mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until just combined. Form the mixture into 4 equal patties.

  2. 2

    Cook the Patties

    Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Cook the turkey patties for about 5-7 minutes on each side or until they are cooked through and the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).

  3. 3

    Toast the Buns

    In the same skillet, lightly toast the burger buns until golden brown.

Herb Aioli

  1. 4

    Make the Aioli

    In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, chopped parsley, chopped dill, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, and black pepper. Set aside.

Sweet & Sour Onion Jam

  1. 5

    Cook the Onions

    In a pan, heat olive oil over medium heat. Add the sliced onions and cook until they are soft and translucent, about 10 minutes.

  2. 6

    Add Sugar and Vinegar

    Stir in the brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, and salt. Cook for another 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mixture thickens into a jam-like consistency. Remove from heat and let cool.

Shoestring Potatoes

  1. 7

    Prepare the Potatoes

    Soak the shoestring potatoes in cold water for 30 minutes to remove excess starch, then drain and pat dry.

  2. 8

    Fry the Potatoes

    Heat vegetable oil in a deep fryer or a large pot to 350°F (175°C). Fry the shoestring potatoes in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes. Remove and drain on paper towels. Season with salt to taste.

Assembly

  1. 9

    Assemble the Burger

    On the bottom half of each toasted bun, spread a generous amount of herb aioli. Place the turkey patty on top, followed by a spoonful of sweet & sour onion jam and a handful of fresh arugula. Top with the other half of the bun.

  2. 10

    Serve

    Serve the turkey burgers with a side of crispy shoestring potatoes.
