The Perfect Turkey Burger for your Memorial Day BBQ!



For your Memorial Day BBQ, here's an amazing, cumin-scented turkey burger, redolent with spices and juiciness. All credit to "Top Chef" Ariane Duarte, who created the original recipe. We've added our own special touches.

They take only minutes to prepare and are loaded with flavor. Serve them on your favorite brioche rolls with Heinz Hamburger Dill Chips, a slice of tomato, and a side of onion rings or fries.  Tip: You can make extras and freeze. They defrost quickly and there is no noticeable difference in flavor or texture.

Ingredients -- Serves 6



2 lbs. of ground white and dark meat turkey
1 or 2 jalapeño peppers, small dice (depending on how much heat you like)
1/2 c. chopped cilatro or flat-leaf Italian parsley
1 tbsp. ground cumin
1 tsp. chopped garlic
1 small onion, diced
1/3 c. bread crumbs
Salt and pepper to taste
12 slices Finlandia Swiss or Light Swiss cheese
6 burger buns of your choice

Process -- 10 minutes or less


In a bowl, combine all ingredients. Divide equally into four large burgers.

Grill on high heat -- 4 minutes on one side, then turn and finish for about 3 minutes to 4 minutes on the other. Add two slices of Finlandia Swiss and let melt.

Then place on your favorite bun and serve!
