OAXACAN TURKEY BURGERS WITH CHIPOTLE SALSA



Oaxacan Turkey Burgers With Chipotle Salsa image

Although you will not find these turkey burgers at a local cantina in Oaxaca, I can vouch that they certainly did conjure up fond memories of the flavors in dishes I ate on some of my many journeys to Oaxaca. I could even imagine these burgers served at one of the open air market's concessions. I tip my hat once again to Steven Raichlen, my grilling hero, for yet another impressively creative and delicious burger. Minus some personal modifications to the recipe, this is the recipe that appeared in Burger. Make Ahead: The salsa makes about 2 cups and can be made ahead of time and stored in the refrigerator in a sealed container for 2 days. Beer Recommendation: A rich malty, roasty beer that absorbs the heat and provides a great counterpart to chipotles and grilled meat is a good choice to pair with these burgers. If you happen to find a Noche Buena, a great dark beer from Mexico, this would be my first choice. Second would be Negra Modelo, a slightly sweet brew with some fruitiness, it's malty for a Mexican beer and goes well with chipotles.

TURKEY BURGERS WITH SALSA



Turkey Burgers With Salsa image

This is one of our family's favorites, and it's pretty healthy, too. I usually double the recipe because it reheats beautifully. I haven't tried to freeze the burgers, but I don't know why that wouldn't work.

Categories     Poultry

Time 25m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 1/4 lbs ground turkey
2 tablespoons cornmeal
2 (3 ounce) cans chopped green chilies, divided
1 tablespoon lime juice, fresh is best but bottled will work
1 egg whites or 1 egg
3 teaspoons cumin, divided
2 teaspoons chili powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
1 tablespoon canola oil
1 cup frozen whole kernel corn or 1 (14 ounce) can whole kernel corn, well drained
1 (14 ounce) can crushed tomatoes or 14 ounces diced tomatoes

Steps:

  • In a large bowl and using your hands mix together the ground turkey, cornmeal, 1 can of the green chilis, lime juice, egg white (or egg), 2 teaspoons cumin, chili powder, salt and pepper.
  • Form turkey mixture into 4 or 5 patties.
  • Heat canola oil in a large fry pan, or if making a double recipe an electric griddle works great.
  • Fry patties about 3 to 5 minutes on each side or until no longer pink in the middle. If making a double batch, as patties are cooked, keep warm in a 150 degree oven on a heat-proof plate.
  • Meanwhile, in a small sauce pan, combine the crushed tomatoes, corn, 1 can chopped green chilis and 1 teaspoons cumin.
  • Heat the "salsa" until bubbly and thoroughly hot.
