Low Carb Caprese Turkey Burger

Made With Our

Directions

Item No. 370221

Ingredients

  • 1 pound  ground turkey
  • 1 package Urban Accents Tomato Basil Turkey Burger Seasoning
  • 1 bunch fresh basil leaves
  • 1 ball fresh mozzarella, sliced
  • 3-4  ripe Roma tomatoes, cut into 1/4-inch slices
  • 2-3  balsamic vinegar or balsamic reduction (to drizzle)
  • 2 heads iceburg lettuce or hamburger buns

Directions

  1. In a large bowl, use your hands to combine ground turkey and seasoning. Make a thumb-print dent in the middle to keep the patties from becoming spheres while cooking.
  2. Heat oil in a non-stick pan, grill, or grill pan over medium-high heat. Cook patties until crispy brown on both sides - approximately 7-9 minutes per side. Use a meat or instant-read thermometer to make sure patties reach an internal temperature of 165°F. Remove patties from pan and let cool slightly.
  3. If using regular hamburger buns, build burger with a patty, a few slices of tomato, a thick slice of mozzarella cheese, and a few basil leaves. Drizzle with balsamic. We might also recommend some mayo here.
  4. Remove any discolored or wilted outer layers from the heads of lettuce. Place the head of lettuce core-down on a cutting board. Carefully cut on a diagonal to make lettuce 'cheeks' (one side rounded, one side flat). You should be able to get approximately four from one head. Build the burger as above and enjoy!
