Ingredients
- 1 lb ground “Churkey” (1/2 lb extra lean ground turkey + 1/2 lb ground chicken breast)
- 1/4 C chopped cilantro
- 2 Tbsp salsa (I used homemade salsa, so it was very chunky, not so pureed)
- 1/2 tsp liquid smoke
- 1/2 tsp sea salt
- 1 egg
- 2 Tbsp chopped onion
Directions
Mix all ingredients until well blended. Pan-fry, grill, or even bake these puppies. Serve them on whole wheat buns, pita thins, corn tortillas or chopped over a fresh salad.
Tip:
To create great flavors, mix several kinds of meats! Extra lean ground pork+ground sirloin+extra lean turkey is a tasty combo as well. I use this method in many styles
I made a double batch and shaped them into either 1/2 pounder patties (man size) or 1/4 pounders. Wrapped them individually in plastic wrap and put them all into a ziploc so I could pull them out for a quick meal depending on who I will be serving.
