2 Tbsp cilantro, fresh, chopped

1/2 cup uncooked quick oats

Recipe
To prepare salsa, combine papaya, mango, 1/4 cup each of red onion and green pepper, cilantro and lime juice in a medium bowl; set aside.
To prepare burgers, combine remaining 1/2 cup of red onion, remaining 1/4 cup of green pepper, oats, ketchup, jerk seasoning and egg in a large bowl; mix until well combined. Add turkey; mix thoroughly. Divide turkey mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each portion into a 1-inch-thick patty; cover and refrigerate for a minimum of 20 minutes.
Preheat broiler. Broil burgers until cooked through, flipping once, about 20 to 25 minutes total. Serve each burger topped with about a heaping 1/3 cup of salsa.
NOTE: We tamed the slight heat of these Caribbean-inspired burgers with a cool and refreshing mango-papaya salsa. They'll be a welcome addition to your summer BBQs. The salsa can be prepared up to 1 day in advance and stored in the refrigerator.
