Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground turkey
- 0.5 cup Panko breadcrumbs
- 2 tablespoons Cilantro, chopped
- 2 stalks Green onion, finely sliced
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon Fresh ginger, minced
- 1 teaspoon Lime zest
- 1 tablespoon Soy sauce
- 0.5 tablespoon Fish sauce
- 1 Egg, lightly beaten
- 2 tablespoons Vegetable oil
- 0.5 cup Mayonnaise
- 1 tablespoon Thai red curry paste
- 1 teaspoon Lime juice
- 4 Burger buns
- 4 Lettuce leaves
- 0.5 cup Cucumber slices
- 1 Carrot, julienned
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey, panko breadcrumbs, cilantro, green onion, garlic, ginger, lime zest, soy sauce, fish sauce, and beaten egg. Mix gently until just combined, being careful not to overwork the mixture.
Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and form into burger patties about 3/4 inch thick. Set aside.
In a small bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, Thai red curry paste, and lime juice until smooth. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet or grill pan over medium heat. Add the turkey patties and cook for 4-5 minutes on each side, or until browned and fully cooked through (internal temperature of 165°F).
Toast the burger buns lightly on a grill or in a toaster, if desired.
To assemble the burgers, spread a generous dollop of red curry mayo on the bottoms of the toasted buns. Top with lettuce leaves, a cooked turkey patty, cucumber slices, and julienned carrots. Place the bun tops on and press gently.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
