INGREDIENTS

Cooking Time: about 12
Servings: 4 patties
Preparation Time: 40

1 lb. ground turkey

2 Tbsp. fresh parsley, chopped

1 tsp. fresh oregano, chopped

1 Tbsp. fresh sage, chopped

1/2 C. diced onion

1/4 C. diced bell pepper

1 tsp. Jack Daniels number 7 mustard

2 tsp. worcestershire sauce

1/4 tsp. cayenne pepper (adjust for more or less heat)

1/4 tsp salt

1/2 tsp chili powder

2 tablespoons olive oil

4 slices of pepper jack cheese

4 Ciabatta rolls

fresh spinach leaves to cover one side of bread

Ingredients For Mango Rum Sauce

1 1/2 C. fresh mango, sliced in chunks

1 tsp. lime curd

1 Tbsp. fresh lime juice

2 Tbsp. Mango Rum

1 tsp. honey

5 drops of tabasco (adjust for your taste)

1/8 C. plus 1 Tbsp. sour cream

DIRECTIONS

Directions For Sauce

Add first 6 ingredients to blender.

Mix well.

Pour into bowl and stir in sour cream.

Can be made ahead and is also wonderful on chicken and fish. Mango pairs well with spicy food and rum, well it blends with almost anything, doesn't it?

Directions For Burgers

Add first 11 ingredients into a bowl and mix by hand.

Shape into 4 equal patties.

Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat.

Cook until turkey is cooked through, approximately 5 to 6 minutes on each side.

Do not press the burger down with the spatula. Turkey is quite lean and you want to keep all those delicious juices trapped inside until you take that first succulent bite!

Turn once and leave it alone.

In the last couple minutes of cooking add a slice of cheese to each pattie and allow to melt.

Serve on ciabatta rolls or bread of your choice with a layer of spinach leaves and a dollop of mango rum sauce.

These turkey burgers can be shaped into mini patties and served up as appetizers with the sauce for dipping. So take em along to your next party as a low carb addition!
