Southwestern Turkey Burger

 

• 1 lb ground turkey breast (1 package)
• 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
• 1 large shallot, finely chopped
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme leaves or 1 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro leaves
• 2 teaspoons, 2/3 palm full, ground cumin
• 1 to 2 teaspoons cayenne hot sauce, several drops (I used Franks)
• 2 teaspoons grill seasoning blend 
• olive oil, for drizzling
• sliced pepper jack cheese
• fresh wheat rolls
• lettuce

Preheat grill or grill pan.  Mix first 9 ingredients together.  Form patties, but don't mix the meat too much or will get tough.  Heat through, make sure it is not pink in the center.  Melt pepper jack cheese on top.

Top with lettuce.

Enjoy :)
