Southwest Turkey Burgers Recipe

  • 10 ounces ground turkey
  • 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons chopped green onions
  • 6 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
  • 2 teaspoons minced canned chipotle chilies
  • 2 teaspoons ground cumin
  • 2 9- to 10-inch flour tortillas
  • 4 tablespoons purchased guacamole
  • Purchased fresh salsa
  1. Gently mix turkey, 1/2 cup green onions, 4 tablespoons cilantro, chipotle chilies, and cumin in medium bowl. Form into two 7-inch-long by 21/2-inch-wide patties. (Can be made 8 hours ahead. Cover and chill.)
  2. Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Grill burgers until cooked through, about 5 minutes per side. Wrap tortillas in foil; grill until heated through. Unwrap tortillas; transfer to 2 plates. Spread 2 tablespoons guacamole down center of each tortilla. Place burgers atop guacamole. Sprinkle with 2 tablespoons green onions and 2 tablespoons cilantro. Fold each tortilla to partially enclose burger. Serve with salsa.
