I like to try new recipes atleast once per week, but lately haven't been cooking anything all that new and exciting. So today I was looking to change things up a bit, but didn't have very many exciting ingredients in the kitchen. Since I was looking for something to do with ground turkey, I found this Rachel Ray recipe that I would definitely make again. It was so simple, and yet super tastey.
Ingredients:
•3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil (EVOO), divided
•1 small red onion, chopped
•1 tablespoon ginger (about 1/2-inch piece), peeled and grated
•3 McIntosh or Gala apples, cored and chopped
•1/2 cup dried cranberries
•3 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
•3 tablespoons honey
•Salt and freshly ground black pepper
•2 pounds ground turkey breast
•1/2 cup parsley (about a handful), chopped
•3 tablespoons chives, chopped
•1/2 tablespoon thyme, chopped
•2 tablespoons grainy mustard
•8 slices extra-sharp yellow cheddar cheese
•4 sandwich-size whole grain English muffins, split
Directions:
Pre-heat the broiler.
Place a medium size skillet over medium-high heat with one turn of the pan of EVOO, about 1 tablespoon. Add the onion and ginger to the pan and cook until the onion has softened, about 5 minutes. Add the apples, cranberries, cider vinegar and honey to the pan with some salt and pepper. Cook the chutney, stirring occasionally, until the apples have broken down and thickened, about 10 minutes.
While the chutney is cooking, place a large skillet over medium-high heat with two turns of the pan of EVOO, about 2 tablespoons. While that's heating up, in a bowl, combine the turkey, herbs, grainy mustard and some salt and pepper. Combine everything with your hands and form it into four patties. Drop the patties into the hot pan and cook through, about 6 minutes per side. Wash your hands after handling the raw poultry.
In the last minute of cooking the burgers, lay two slices of cheese over each burger and cover the pan loosely with foil to melt the cheese.
While the burgers cook, place the English muffins split side up onto a baking sheet and toast under the broiler until golden brown (keep an eye on them so they don't burn!).
Serve up the burgers by placing one patty onto each of the four muffin halves. Divide the chutney between each burger and cap them off with the remaining muffin tops
