Recipe Instructions

It's necessary to highly season turkey because the meat itself tastes rather mild. Yet, once ground turkey is cooked up, it's delicious. To do a taste test on the mixture, make a little patty the size of a silver dollar and pan-fry it in a nonstick skillet. This way you can adjust your seasonings to taste. A mayonnaise-type dressing and avocado make perfect toppings.

1. Prepare hot coals for grilling.

2. Place the ground turkey in a bowl and mix well with the scallions, bell pepper, garlic, cilantro and spices. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Gently form into 4 patties.

3. Grill patties over hot coals, 3" from heat, for about 5-6 minutes per side.

4. If desired, spread buns with mayonnaise-type dressing and top burgers with avocado slices. Serve immediately.
