The Island Burger

As everyone knows by now, I love a good burger. This was an idea that I worked up with Laura. We hadn't really enjoyed a good Turkey in a while and we came up with this. We both love Polynesian flavors which mix Teriyaki with bright fruit like pineapple and mango. How about I take a turkey burger and dip it in my homemade honey Teriyaki and top it with Swiss Cheese and sauteed pineapple and mango. So like Picard on the Next Generation I made it so. Here are the things you'll need:

1 lb Ground Turkey
1/2 Onion (Diced very fine or Grated)
1 cup Bread Crumbs
1 tbsp Worcestershire Sauce
1 tbsp Thai Hot Sauce (Sirachi)
1 Tbsp black pepper
1 tsp Garlic Powder
1 tsp salt
1 tsp Red Pepper Flake

Cajun seasoning
4 slices Swiss cheese
1/2 cup cubed mango
1/2 cup cubed pineapple

1 cup soy sauce
3/4 cup of white sugar
2 tbsp Molasses
2 tbsp honey
1 tbsp balsamic vinegar
1 tsp Garlic Powder
1 tsp white pepper
1 tsp ginger

Add ingredients of the bottom list in a small sauce pot, stir, cover, and cook over medium low heat for 30 minutes and this will be the honey teriyaki sauce.

Heat up a large oiled skillet and heat it to medium heat. In a mixing bowl, add mixture from top list and mix thoroughly. Form into four burgers and place on a plate. Dust one side of each burger in cajun seasoning and place dusted side down in skillet and heat for 8 minutes. Dust again and flip. Cook for another 7 minutes, flip again and cost each burger in teriyaki sauce then cover with cheese and place in broiler for 2 minutes to melt cheese. Place Burgers on buns and add pineapple and mango into teriyaki and sautee on medium high heat for about 3 minutes. soon fruit on the top of the burgers and vote down. Burgers are easy to make and ground turkey soaks up so much flavor. They taste absolutely insane. Another idea for turkey burgers is the Thanksgiving burger. You just put some cornbread dressing and cranberry sauce on those suckers and they're good to go. If anyone has any other Turkey burger recipes, let me know and I'll try them. Thank you for reading and I hope you like this joy of a recipe.
