Number Of Ingredients 8

1 1/2 pounds ground white meat turkey ((turkey breast))
2 tablespoons white miso paste
2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
1 tablespoon grated ginger
1 tablespoon grated garlic
1/4 cup unseasoned rice wine vinegar
3 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce ((or gluten-free soy sauce))
2 tablespoons honey

Steps:

Heat grill or oven broiler to 500 degrees F. If using a grill, coat grates with oil or cooking spray. If using broiler, line a baking sheet with foil and place a broiling rack on top. Coat rack with cooking spray and set aside.
In a large bowl, combine the ground turkey, miso paste, cilantro, ginger, and garlic. Knead gently until ingredients are well mixed.
Divide the turkey mixture into 6 equal portions (if you have a food scale you can weigh them - they should be about 4 ounces each) and form into patties.
Place burgers directly on grill or on broiling rack and cook 5 minutes.
While burgers are cooking on first side, combine rice vinegar, soy sauce, and honey in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Immediately reduce heat to simmer sauce for 2 to 3 minutes until sauce coats the back of a spoon. Turn off heat and set aside.
Remove burgers from grill/oven and brush both sides with prepared honey-soy glaze. Place burgers back on grill or under broiler and cook another 5 minutes.
Remove burgers from grill or oven and let rest 5 minutes before serving.
