Apple Turkey Burgers with Caramelized Onions

apple turkey burger

Ingredients (4 servings)

  • 1 tbsp Coconut Oil

  • 2 Yellow Onion (peeled and finely sliced)

  • 2 Apples (green, divided)

  • 1 lb Extra Lean Ground Turkey

  • 2 tsps Dijon Mustard

  • 1/2 tsp Ground Sage

  • 1/2 tsp Dried Thyme

  • 1 tsp Sea Salt

  • 1/4 tsp Black Pepper

  • 4 ozs Brie Cheese

  • 1 head Green Lettuce (separated into leaves and washed)

Steps

  1. Heat coconut oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Add yellow onion and saute for 30 minutes or until fried and crispy, stirring occasionally. When onion bits get stuck to the bottom, add 1 to 2 tbsp of water at a time to deglaze the pan. Set aside.

  2. Take half your apple servings and shred into a bowl. Squeeze and remove excess juice (drink it or add it to a smoothie later!).

  3. In a mixing bowl, combine the turkey, shredded apple, dijon, sage, thyme, salt and pepper. Form into patties.

  4. Preheat grill over medium heat. Transfer burgers onto the grill and cook for about 7 to 8 minutes per side or until burger is cooked through and juices run clear. Remove from grill.

  5. Cut the remaining apple into slices. Plate burger over a bed of lettuce and top with brie, apple slices and caramelized onion.
