1
Prepare the Turkey Patties
In a mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey with salt, pepper, and any desired spices. Form the mixture into 4 equal-sized patties.
2
Cook the Turkey Patties
Heat a grill or skillet over medium heat. Cook the turkey patties for about 5-7 minutes on each side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 165°F (75°C).
3
Sauté the Portobello Mushrooms
In a separate pan, add a little olive oil and sauté the portobello mushrooms over medium heat for 3-4 minutes on each side until tender.
4
Caramelize the Onions
In a skillet, add sliced onions with a bit of oil or butter. Cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, for about 20-25 minutes until they are golden brown and caramelized.
5
Roast the Tomatoes
Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Slice tomatoes in half, drizzle with olive oil, and season with salt and pepper. Roast for about 20 minutes until softened.

6
Prepare the Bread
Lightly toast the herb schiacciata Italian bread slices until golden and crispy.
7
Assemble the Burgers
On each slice of toasted bread, place a cooked turkey patty. Top with sautéed portobello mushrooms, caramelized onions, roasted tomatoes, and a slice of Swiss cheese.
8
Add Fresh Ingredients
Add a generous handful of baby arugula on top of the cheese.
9
Finish with Aioli
Drizzle red pepper aioli over the assembled open face burgers.
