MARTHA'S SECRET TURKEY BURGER

Steps:

• Drain 1 jar relish in a sieve; discard liquid. Pulse 2/3 cup drained relish with onion and garlic in a food processor until finely chopped.

Stir in turkey, Worcestershire, mustard, bread, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and pepper to taste. Form into 8 patties, each about 4 inches in diameter. Refrigerate, covered, at least 1 hour and up to 8 hours.

• Combine chili sauce and mayonnaise. Drizzle kale with vinegar and remaining teaspoon oil; season with salt and pepper. Brush cut sides of rolls with butter; grill until lightly toasted. Sandwich burgers in rolls with chili sauce mixture, remaining relish and kale.
