How to Make Garlic Chili Turkey Burger

  1. Step 1

    In a medium bowl, whisk the vinegar, sugar and black pepper until the sugar is dissolved. Add the cucumber and onion, toss and marinate for 30 minutes.

  2. Step 2

    Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the yogurt and 1 teaspoon of the chili garlic sauce.

  3. Step 3

    In a large bowl, combine the turkey, hoisin sauce, hot sauce, scallions, ginger, garlic, jalapeño, chopped cilantro and the remaining 1 teaspoon chili garlic sauce. Form into 4 patties.

  4. Step 4

    In a large nonstick skillet over medium heat, heat the oil until hot. Cook the patties, turning once, until the meat is no longer pink, about 3 to 4 minutes per side.

  5. Step 5

    Drain the cucumber and red onion mixture and toss with the whole cilantro leaves.

  6. Step 6

    Arrange a burger patty on each bun and top with yogurt sauce, lettuce leaves, and cucumber and red onion mixture.
