Ingredients

Serves:

Directions

Gently mix the turkey, salt, paprika, and half of the beaten egg in a large bowl just until blended.

Using a 4-inch-diameter ring mold, form the turkey mixture into four 8-ounce patties on a baking sheet lined with waxed paper. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour for flavors to blend. Flatten the patties so they are slightly larger than the diameter of the buns.

To make the relish: Heat the olive oil in a large sauté pan over medium-high heat. Add the onion and sauté until translucent, about 3 minutes. Add the bell peppers, sugar, garlic, and thyme and cook until the vegetables soften slightly, about 3 minutes. Add the vinegar and cook until the liquid has evaporated, about 2 minutes. Remove the skillet from the heat. Stir in the parsley and season to taste with salt and pepper; set aside to keep warm.

Preheat a grill over medium-high heat. Lightly brush the patties with olive oil and season with salt and pepper, then place the patties on the grill. Cook until fully cooked through and an instant-read thermometer registers 165°F when inserted into the center of the patties, about 4 minutes per side. While the burgers are cooking, brush the cut sides of the buns lightly with olive oil and grill, oiled side down, until lightly toasted with grill marks, about 1 minute. Remove the buns and burgers from the grill and allow the burgers to rest for 3 minutes.

To make the yogurt sauce: Mix the yogurt, olives, shallots, and parsley in a medium bowl. Season the yogurt sauce to taste with salt and pepper.

Set a patty atop each bun bottom. Top with the warm red pepper relish, then yogurt sauce, and finally with the bun tops.

Serve and enjoy.

you can add a little mustard and ketchup and minced onions in the burger and then top off the burger with duck sauce. Onions also on bottom of pan while broiling or baking also makes a good burger.

It's definitely worth the effort, but I would warn people that dark turkey meat, which is more meaty and can mimic beef more easily, is more fattening and has more calories than a lot of beef. If you're going to do this, go with the white turkey meat, which has very little fat and very few calories. I personally like to go with the Laura's Lean grass fed beef, which only has about 140 calories per serving. You can mix an egg white into the ground meat (only 17 additional calories) to help hold the lean beef or white turkey meat together. Then use Nature's Own whole wheat buns (60 calories each) and you can add the cheese and the mayo (olive oil mayo is half the calories and specialty mayo like chipotle infused is even fewer cals) with no guilt.
