List of Ingredients




1/2 medium onion, finely diced
1 clove garlic, minced
1 T extra-virgin olive oil
1 T butter
1 T fresh ginger, minced
1 t sesame seeds (toasted if you wish)
1 t fresh thyme leaves
The patty mixture:

3/4 lb ground chicken or turkey
1/4 c plain bread crumbs
1/4 c fresh parsley, chopped
1/4 c grated Parmesan or Romano cheese
1/4 t salt
1/4 t fresh ground pepper
The wrappers:

4 large sourdough English Muffins, toasted
4 T mayonnaise
4 T mustard (Dijon, sweet-hot, or whatever)
4 lettuce leaves
Sweat the onion in the butter on low heat for 5-10 minutes, till it's soft but not browned. Add the ginger and continue cooking for another five minutes. Add the garlic, continue cooking for two minutes, then remove from heat. Add the thyme and sesame seeds, and let the mixture cool. Add a dash of salt & pepper.

Knead together all ingredients for the patty mixture till they're well blended. Add additional bread crumbs as necessary to firm up the mixture.

Form four balls from the patty mixture, then carefully flatten each ball into a disc. Work the edges of each disc to smooth out any breaks at the edges. The discs should end up about six inches in diameter, and 1/2 to 3/4 inch thick.

As always after working with raw poultry, wash your hands well.

Toast the English Muffins and spread with a mixture of the mustard and mayonnaise. Add a lettuce leaf and set aside.

Place the patties into a medium skillet with about a tablespoon of oil, frying for 4 minutes on the first side. The patties should develop a nice brown crust. Flip and cook for 3-4 minutes more. Keep the heat low enough so the patties go for the full four minutes before browning too much; they have to cook thoroughly. (With ground meat, any surface bacteria will have been mixed throughout the meat during the grinding process, which increases risk when the meat is undercooked.)

Since the patties are fairly large, consider cooking two at a time and holding them under foil to stay warm while you cook the remaining two.

Assemble each patty and muffin and serve. Serves four.
