Ultimate Turkey Burger

My girlfriend Leslie has perfected the art of the PERFECT Turkey Burger.  She continues to alter and change up her burgers as she goes but this one has become the ultimate favorite of all time.  We recently went to Palm Springs for the weekend and I was able to document her making her burgers.

Ingredients: (4 burgers)
1 pound ground turkey (we usually use Jennie-O)
1 jalapeno pepper (take out the seeds, chopped)
1/2 onion (also chopped into small pieces)
1 handful of cilantro (chopped)
3/4 cup Parmesan cheese
2 lemons



Put all of the ingredients into a mixing bowl and mix it all together.  Once everything is mixed together well create 4 large patties, making sure to press firmly together so that the patties do not fall apart when you cook them.  Place the burgers onto the grill, lightly sprinkle Lawry's Seasoning Salt on the side facing up and also you want to cut one of the lemons in half and  squeeze the lemon juice right onto the burger.  Once the other side is cooked, flip over and repeat with Lawry's and lemon.


These burgers have so many flavors and are fun to decorate with or without a bun.  Add avocado, cheese (any cheese of your choice), or grilled mushrooms just to name a few of our favorites.


 Do you have a favorite burger recipe; I would love to hear it or please share any links.
