Ingredients
- 1 pound 99% lean ground turkey
- 1 pound turkey sausage (sweet or spicy with casings removed (I used spicy))
- 1/3 cup panko bread crumbs
- 2 teaspoons ground basil
- 2 teaspoons ground oregano
- 1 teaspoon fennel seeds
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
- 8 ounces Asiago cheese
- 8 ounces Mozzarella cheese
- 6 whole wheat hamburger buns (for serving)
- 1 large red onion (halved and thinly sliced)
- 1 g reen bell pepper (thinly sliced)
- 1 red bell pepper (thinly sliced)
- 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
Steps
-
Preheat a grill to medium-high. While the grill heats, make the burgers by placing the ground turkey, turkey sausage, bread crumbs, basil, oregano, fennel, garlic powder, salt, black pepper, and red pepper flakes in a large mixing bowl.
-
Gently mix with your fingers. Make sure the ingredients are fairly evenly incorporated, but do not compact the meat.
-
Shape into 6 patties, then grill on medium high until the bottoms are browned (about 5 minutes).
-
Flip and continue grilling until cooked through; about 5 additional minutes. When the burgers are almost ready, top with mozzarella and Asiago cheeses.
-
Meanwhile, place the veggie slices in a medium bowl. Drizzle with olive oil, then sprinkle with salt and pepper. Toss to coat.
-
Place in a grill basket and grill until softened and lightly charred, about 8 minutes, turning the veggies often so that they do not burn. Toast the buns as desired.
-
Serve burgers on the buns, topped with grilled veggies. Enjoy immediately.
