Recipe Introduction
These family-friendly burgers get an added kick of flavor (and juiciness) thanks to grated cheese and onion, plus a generous dollop of mashed avocado.
List of Ingredients
Cheddar Turkey Burgers With Mashed Avocado
canola oil, for the grate
1 avocado, chopped
1 teaspoon fresh lime juice
kosher salt and ground pepper
1 1/4 pounds ground turkey, preferably dark meat
4 ounces extra-sharp Cheddar, grated (about 1 cup)
1/2 small red onion, half grated and half thinly sliced
4 whole-wheat hamburger buns, split
Recipe
Heat grill to medium-high.
Once it is hot, clean the grill grate with a wire brush.
Just before grilling, oil the grill grate.
Mix together the avocado, lime juice, and 1/4 teaspoon each salt and pepper in a small bowl until combined.
Gently mix together the turkey, Cheddar, grated onion, 3/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper with your hands in a medium bowl until just combined.
Form the turkey mixture into four 3/4-inch-thick patties.
Use your fingers to make a shallow well in the top of each patty (this will prevent overplumping during cooking).
Grill the burgers until cooked through and an instant-read thermometer inserted in the center registers 165º F, 6 to 8 minutes per side.*
Grill the buns, split-side down, until toasted, 5 to 10 seconds per side.
Stack the burgers, sliced onion, and avocado mixture between the buns.
