asian turkey burgers

Serves 4

I love asian flavors, and these burgers are a healthy way to enjoy them. Serve them on a kaiser roll with lettuce and tomato and a side of asian slaw, or over rice with stir fried vegetables.

1 1/2 lbs ground turkey breast
1 egg (or 2 egg whites, if you prefer)
1/2 cup dried bread crumbs
2 tbsp sesame oil
2 tbsp soy sauce
4 green onions, finely chopped
1 tbsp fresh grated ginger or ginger puree (with prepared garlic products at the grocery store)
asian chili sauce (such as sriracha) to taste
salt and pepper to taste
sesame seeds (optional)

Combine all ingredients by hand in a large mixing bowl, mixing just enough to combine to avoid making turkey tough. Form into 4 burger patties and sprinkle with sesame seeds, pressing them into burger. Fry in a thin coat of olive oil over med-high heat.
