Turkey Burgers With Mozzarella and Roasted Peppers
Total time: 22 min
Prep time: 15 min
Chef: Melinablue
| Ingredients |
1 lb ground turkey
14 cup diced onion
1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
1 tsp dried oregano
12 tsp salt
14 tsp black pepper (ground)
|
2 red peppers (roasted red peppers halved from water packed jar)
4 ozs part-skim mozzarella cheese (slices)
4 hamburger buns (multigrain)
nonstick cooking spray
| 1 | If grilling, spray grill rack with cooking spray and fire it up. |
| 2 | If pan-frying like me, spray pan, but wait to heat it until almost ready to cook the patties. |
| 3 | Mix turkey, onion, vinegar, oregano, salt and black pepper in a bowl until combined; but try not to overwork the turkey, since too much handling will make it tough. |
| 4 | Form mixture into four patties. |
| 5 | Sear patties one minute per side, then turn down heat, or move to cooler part of grill. |
| 6 | Cook 3-5 minutes per side, or until center isn't pink anymore. |
| 7 | Top with roasted peppers and cheese, and keep on heat until cheese melts. |
| 8 | Transfer to buns, add preferred condiments and enjoy. |
