SOURCE: Cooking Light Magazine, June 2004

Yield: 4 servings (serving size: 1 burger)

Salsa:

  • 2/3 cup diced peeled papaya
  • 2/3 cup diced peeled mango
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped red bell pepper
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
  • 1/2 teaspoon grated lime rind
  • 2 tablespoons fresh lime juice

Burgers:

  • 1 cup finely chopped red onion
  • 1/2 cup dry breadcrumbs
  • 1/3 cup bottled sweet-and-sour sauce
  • 1/4 cup finely chopped red bell pepper
  • 1 tablespoon Jamaican Jerk seasoning (such as Spice Islands)
  • 1 pound ground turkey
  • Cooking Spray
  • 4 (2-ounce) Kaiser rolls or hamburger buns

To prepare salsa, combine first 7 ingredients. Let stand at room temperature at least 30 minutes.

Prepare grill to medium heat.

To prepare burgers, combine 1 cup onion and next 5 ingredients (onion through egg white), stirring well. Add turkey; mix well to combine. Divide turkey mixture into 4 equal portions, shaping into a 1-inch-thick patty.

Lightly coat patties with cooking spray; place on a grill rack coated with cooking spray. Grill 7 minutes on each side or until done.

Cut rolls in half horizontally. Place rolls, cut sides down, on grill rack; grill one minute or until lightly toasted. Place one patty on bottom half of each roll; top with 1/2 cup salsa and top half of roll.
