Description

Ingredients

• 1 pound ground turkey (I prefer 85% lean, it has more fat which makes for a better burger!) If your ground turkey has excess liquid, be sure to set on paper towels to remove the juices.
• ½-3/4 of one jalapeño pepper, minced(I like it hot so I use ¾)
• 1 medium size shallot, peeled and minced
• zest and of one lime, and 2 teaspoon lime juice
• 2 Tablespoon chopped cilantro
• 1 teaspoon paprika
• 1 teaspoon cumin
• ½ a teaspoon sea salt
• ½ teaspoon black pepper
• guacamole
• pico de gallo
• poached egg (optional)

Directions

• Note: The ground turkey I buy is the consistency of hamburger. If yours seems to have extra liquid, set on paper towels to drain juices.
• Place turkey, herbs, spices and lime in bowl and use hands to mix well.
• Form into four patties.
• Place pan on medium heat.
• Add olive oil to bottom of pan.
• When pan is hot, place patties in pan and cook for about 5 minutes each side or until cooked through.
• Top with guacamole, pico de gallo and poached egg if desired!
