Time 20m

Yield Makes Batches

Number Of Ingredients 15

400g minced turkey
1 lime, grated zest
Half a small onion, finely chopped
1 clove garlic finely chopped
Half a lime, juiced
A handful of freshly chopped coriander
1 tbsp sunflower oil
Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
Half tsp of cumin
Half tsp of paprika
Chilli flakes (optional)
Shredded lettuce
Chilli and pepper mexican cheese
4 fajita wraps
Sour cream to serve

Steps:

  • Place minced turkey in a mixing bowl and add the lime zest, onion, garlic, coriander, cumin, paprika and chilli flakes.
  • Once mixed thoroughly, add the lime juice and salt and pepper and mix until all the juice has been absorbed. They will be slightly wet but this is ok.
  • Shape the mixture into 4 patties. You can make them any size you want so the number of patties is subjective.
  • Heat the oil in a heavy based frying pan on a medium high heat. Once temperature had increased, add the burgers and cook for 5 minutes on each side until cooked all the way through. Place a slice of mexican cheese on top of the burgers whilst they are cooking so the cheese melts over the top.
  • Heat the fajitas as per pack instruction. To make a pocket for the burgers, fold in half and then half again. Stuff the pocket with lettuce and add the burger when cooked. Serve with sour cream.
