Best Recipe for Knife-and-Fork Chili Turkey Burgers

Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 pounds ground turkey
  • 1 cup shredded sharp Cheddar
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped red bell pepper
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped red onion
  • 1 tablespoon Quick and Easy Sugar-Free Ketchup, recipe follows
  • 1 tablespoon chili powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • Pinch cayenne pepper
  • 1 large egg, beaten
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 10 tablespoons mayonnaise
  • 10 red leaf lettuce leaves
  • 10 tomato slices
  • 10 onion slices
  • 10 pickle spears
  • 8 ounces no-sugar-added tomato sauce
  • 6 ounces no-sugar-added tomato paste
  • 2 tablespoons white vinegar
  • 1/4 cup sugar substitute (recommended: Splenda)

Instructions

  1. Make the Burgers: Mix all the ingredients together with your hands, except the oil, in a bowl.
  2. Divide the meat mixture into 10 equal-sized patties.
  3. Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Working in batches, cook the burgers, turning once, until lightly browned and cooked through, about 7 minutes per side. (An instant-read thermometer inserted in the center of the thickest burger should read at least 165 degrees F.)
  4. Divide the burgers among plates--2 to a plate. Dollop each serving with mayonnaise and stack lettuce, tomato, onion, and pickle on top.
  5. Mix all ingredients together in a small bowl. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
