Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 0.5 pound Ground turkey
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.25 teaspoon Dried sage
- 0.125 teaspoon Cayenne pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 4 pieces Large eggs
- 1 ripe Avocado
- 8 pieces Butter lettuce leaves
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil
- 1 sliced Tomato
Instructions
In a medium mixing bowl, combine ground turkey, garlic powder, onion powder, dried sage, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Mix the ingredients by hand until well combined and form into four equal-sized patties.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add the turkey sausage patties and cook for about 4-5 minutes on each side, or until they are cooked through and golden brown.
While the sausage patties are cooking, cut the avocado in half, remove the pit, and scoop the flesh into a bowl. Mash it lightly with a fork and season with a small pinch of salt and pepper.
Once the patties are cooked, remove them from the skillet and set aside. In the same skillet, lower the heat to medium and add the remaining tablespoon of olive oil.
Fry the eggs in the skillet. Crack each egg into the skillet, keeping them separate. Cook the eggs to your desired doneness, either sunny side up or over easy.
To assemble the sandwich, place a few leaves of butter lettuce on a plate. Add a dollop of mashed avocado, followed by a sausage patty.
Top with a fried egg and a slice of tomato, then finish with another leaf of butter lettuce.
Repeat the assembly process for the remaining three sandwiches and serve immediately.
