Lowfat Turkey Burger Food

KITTENCAL'S MOIST TURKEY BURGERS FOR THE GRILL (LOW FAT)

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix together the ground turkey with all the ingredients; mix well to combine (if you find the mixture is too moist you can add in a small amount more of bread crumbs).
• Shape into patties, then place the patties on a plate and cover with plastic wrap; chill for 4-24 hours to blend flavors (24 hours is even better!).
• Place on the barbecue and grill until done (about 12-15 minutes) if made on a outdoor grill.
• DELICIOUS!

LOWFAT TURKEY BURGER RECIPE

Steps:

• Slice up onions and satuee them in butter until dark and carmalized.
• Set aside and allow to cool for 3 minutes.
• While onions are cooler remove turkey from wrapping and put in a large bowl.
• Add either 2 whole eggs or 4 egg whites. Add ranch powder. Add Pepper.
• Mix and then add in onions when cool and mix again.
• Will be gooey, cook on foil then freeze or freeze them raw and cook later.
• I cook these on foil at 425 in the oven until brown. Maybe 10 minutes or so max in a convection oven.

LEAN TURKEY BURGER WITH SWEET POTATO WEDGES

Steps:

• Heat oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Zap the sweet potato wedges in the microwave for about 6 mins on full power until just turning soft. Leave to rest for 30 secs.
• While the sweet potato is spinning in the microwave, mix the mince in a bowl with the onion, garlic, egg and apple. Get your hands stuck in and work the ingredients together with a good pinch of salt and pepper, the oregano and paprika. Shape the mixture into two burgers about 3cm thick. Place on a lined baking tray in the oven for 20-25 mins, turning half way through cooking, until cooked through.
• Heat the coconut oil in a large frying pan over a high heat. Add the sweet potato wedges and shallow-fry for about 3 mins each side until they are nicely browned all over and cooked through to the centre. (Alternatively, toss in the oil and roast in the oven for 15-20 mins.) Drain on kitchen paper, then season with a good pinch of salt.
• Serve the burgers with the sweet potato wedges and a portion of green veg either steamed, blanched or boiled.

TURKEY BURGER

Steps:

• Mix all together. Squish down a little in the bowl that you mixed it in and draw two lines intersecting. These are your 4 burgers.
• Pull out each pie shaped wedge and make little balls. Squish down a little to make a patty.
• Grill on preheated grill on the top rack with the lid closed for 6 minutes. Flip once and grill the same way for another 6 minutes.
• Check with thermometer. Don't squish with spatula or you lose juices. It's a very squishy burger and doesn't like to be flipped a lot either.
• I sprayed the burgers to help make sure they don't stick, but not 100% sure that's necessary.

LOW FAT SPINACH TURKEY BURGERS

Steps:

• Mix the turkey, spinach and cucumber up in a large bowl.
• Add all spices as per your personnel taste.
• Mix well, then divide into 4 equal shares.
• Make patties from each one being careful to flatten out to 1/2" or less thickness.
• Grill on medium heat.

LOW CARB TURKEY BURGERS (WITH A KICK!)

THAI INSPIRED TURKEY BURGERS (LOW FAT)

Steps:

• Put the lemongrass, garlic, ginger, green onions, cilantro, chili flakes and lime zest into a food processor or chopper along with the water and blitz them until they are finely chopped and combined.
• Add the mixture to the turkey and also put in the egg white.
• Mix the turkey and the other ingredients together by hand until they are well combined.
• Put into the fridge to chill for about 30 minutes for them to firm up a bit.
• Take out of the fridge and shape into four equal sized burger patties.
• Then either fry them off in a pan as you would normally do or do as I do and brush them very lightly with a bit of extra virgin olive oil and cook them on a Foreman type grill. It takes about 8 minutes or so for them to be fully cooked.
• Serve.
