- 1 ¾ pounds lean ground beef (or ground turkey)
- 2 tablespoons finely minced onion
- salt and black pepper (to taste)
- 4 tablespoons cream cheese
- 2 ounces cheddar cheese (shredded)
- ¼ teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 jalapeño (diced, seeds removed if you prefer less spice)
- 1 tablespoon olive oil
- hamburger buns
Steps
Preheat grill to medium or oven to broil on high.
In a small bowl combine cream cheese, cheddar cheese, garlic powder and diced jalapeno.
Combine meat, salt & pepper and minced onion. Divide meat into 4 even pieces (7oz each). Take ¼ of the cream cheese mixture and flatten it into a pancake shape. Wrap beef or turkey around the cheese ensuring the cheese mixture is completely covered. Brush each burger with a little bit of olive oil.
Grill burgers over medium heat for 6-7 minutes on each side or until completely cooked. (Turkey should reach an internal temperature of 165 degrees and beef should reach 160°F.)
Place burgers on a foil covered pan approximately 6" from the broiler. Broil 5-6 minutes on each side or until completely cooked. (Turkey should reach an internal temperature of 165 degrees and beef should reach 160°F.)
