Hoisin Turkey Burgers with Fontina
Ingredients
4 ounces Deli Fontina cheese
1 medium red bell pepper (rinsed)
1 1/3 lb ground turkey
1/2 cup pre-diced onions
1/4 cup hoisin sauce
4 tablespoons light mayonnaise
4 hamburger buns
Steps
- Preheat grill. Slice cheese thinly and set aside. Remove seeds and membranes from pepper; cut pepper into 1/4-thick-strips and set aside. Combine in medium bowl, ground turkey, onions, and hoisin sauce; mix until well blended. Form into four equal patties (wash hands).
- Place burgers on grill (wash hands); close lid (or cover loosely with foil). Grill 4–5 minutes on each side or until internal temperature reaches 165°F. Use a meat thermometer to accurately ensure doneness. (Grills vary widely; adjust time as needed.)
Note: Burgers may be cooked in grill pan preheated on medium-high. Lightly coat pan with canola oil. Cook time will be about the same.
- Spread mayonnaise on both halves of buns. Place burgers on bottom halves of buns; top each with red pepper and cheese slices. Assemble and serve.
