Mushroom Swiss Turkey Burgers
from Martha Stewarts Everyday Food July/August 2012
Ingredients:
1 Large Red Onion-cut cross-wise into 1/4 inch rounds
1 teaspoon vegetable oil. more for grill
1/2 pound button mushrooms, quartered
course salt and ground pepper
1 pound ground white turkey meat
1/3 cup roughly chopped fresh parsley
2 ounces Swiss cheese, thinly sliced
4 whole wheat burger buns, lightly toasted
2 roasted red peppers, cut into 1 inch slices
baby arugula for serving
Directions:
1. Finely chop onion to yield 1/3 cup (reserve remaining for burgers). In large skillet, heat oil over medium-high; cook chopped onions and mushrooms, stirring occasionally, until onion is soft and mushrooms are golden, about 4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper, then transfer to cutting board and roughly chop mixture.
2.. Heat grill to medium high. Clean and lightly oil grill. Season onion rounds with salt and pepper; grill until lightly charred and tender, 5 minutes, flipping once. In a large bowl, combine mushroom mixture, turkey and parsley. Form into four 1/2 inch thick patties, season with salt and pepper. Grill about 4-6 minutes each side, flipping once. Top each patty with cheese; grill until burgers are cooked through and cheese is just melted, 1 minute. Serve burgers on buns with grilled onions, peppers and arugula.
