The other night I had a very simple idea for Turkey Burgers "Maui Style"
I used..
1.5 lbs of ground turkey
1 Egg raw
1/2 Cup of Panko Bread Crumbs
Pineapple Slices
White American Cheese (sliced)
Salt and Pepper
Teriyaki Sauce
Extra Virgin Olive Oil
I mixed the ground turkey, egg, bread crumbs, salt and pepper together and made patties.
I paper toweled the pineapple slices dry and then in a hot pan I drizzled about 1 tbsp of EVOO and seared the pineapple slices on both sides and set aside.
Next I drizzled about 2 tbsp of EVOO over the still hot pan and laid out the patties to cook, once they were done on the bottom I flipped them and put a pineapple slice on each patty and drizzled teriyaki over the top and filled the little hole in the pineapple with more teriyaki sauce. Once the patty was nearly cooked through I drizzled a little more teriyaki and then topped with a slice of cheese.
I served these on kaiser rolls and let the wife and kids finish them with whatever condiments and such they liked. Big hit!
