Looking for a delicious burger? Check this one out! I came across the basis of this recipe a couple of years ago in a Weight Watchers cookbook. It's a great recipe, but needed some tweaking. First of all, I think it's just plain WEIRD for any recipe to call for 3/4 lb of meat. I'm sorry, but I always have 1 lb, and I'm not about to waste 1/4 lb of meat for a recipe. So....I always use 1 lb for this recipe, add a bit of the rest of the ingredients if you want, to make up for it, add what you wish--I really don't think you can go wrong. We also have tried this with just about every meat possible, beef, chicken, turkey, lamb, veal..and they are all delicious!!! Now, throw everything but the kitchen sink in this burger, and it will be DELICIOUS!!!! YUM-O!!! ENJOY!!!
Kitchen Sink Burger
Ingredients:
3/4 lb ground turkey/lamb/veal/beef, etc (I almost always use 1 lb)
2 green onions, chopped (I just use 1/2 medium onion, chopped, and it's fantastic)
1 tablespoon reduced sodium soy sauce
1 tablespoon ketchup
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/3 cup monterey jack cheese (I just use whatever 2% shredded cheese I have on hand--it's all delicious)
I also add:
*chopped shiitake mushrooms (regular mushrooms work, too, but the shiitakes seem to work together in the meat better)
*dash of onion powder
*red pepper flakes
Directions:
*Mix together all ingredients, divide into 6 or 7 patties (unless you want really big burgers).
* Heat a small amount of olive oil in a skillet (approx. 1-2 turns around the pan--just to coat the bottom).
* Once the oil is hot, place burgers in the skillet---cook approx 3-4 minutes a side.
These are delicious with any of your regular burger toppings---my personal favorite is BBQ sauce! YUM!!!
ENJOY!
