Buffalo Turkey Burger

Description

Get ready for a culinary journey to the vibrant city of Buffalo, New York, the birthplace of the famous Buffalo sauce, which we're going to use in a unique and exciting way. Our Buffalo Turkey Burger is a contemporary twist on the classic American burger. This savory treat is not only delicious but also healthier, as we substitute traditional beef with lean turkey. The Buffalo sauce adds a tangy, spicy kick, perfectly balanced by the creamy blue cheese and crisp, fresh veggies. This burger is an explosion of flavors that will take your regular BBQ night to a whole new level. The best part is, it's so easy to make, it's perfect for a quick, satisfying dinner or a hearty weekend lunch.

Ingredients

Preparation Method

Begin by making the Buffalo sauce. In a saucepan, combine all the sauce ingredients over medium heat. Stir until the butter is melted and the ingredients are well incorporated. Allow the sauce to simmer for about 20 minutes, until it thickens slightly.

While the sauce is simmering, prepare the patties. In a large bowl, combine the ground turkey, egg, breadcrumbs, a quarter cup of the Buffalo sauce, and season with salt and pepper. Mix everything until well combined, but avoid overmixing as it can make the patties tough. Divide the mixture into four equal portions and shape them into patties.

Preheat your grill or stovetop grill pan over medium-high heat. Cook the patties for about 5-6 minutes on each side, or until they're cooked through. During the last minute of cooking, place a slice of blue cheese on each patty and let it melt slightly.

To assemble the burgers, spread some Buffalo sauce on the bottom half of the buns. Place a lettuce leaf on top, followed by a turkey patty. Add a slice of tomato and onion, then drizzle some more Buffalo sauce on top. Finally, cover with the top bun. Your Buffalo Turkey Burgers are now ready to serve and enjoy!

Tips and Conclusion

Accompany these burgers with some crispy sweet potato fries or a refreshing coleslaw to balance the heat. If you have leftover Buffalo sauce, store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator. It makes a great dip for chicken wings or a spicy dressing for salads.

Preparing and savoring these Buffalo Turkey Burgers is a fun and flavorful experience. The combination of the spicy Buffalo sauce, the tender turkey patty, and the creamy blue cheese is irresistibly tasty.
