Step 1

Preheat grill to medium-high. ( see notes to pan-sear)

Step 2

Combine all the burger ingredients in a medium bowl and mix well using hands. With wet hands, shape into 3 burgers, 1-inch thick. Place on a plate in the fridge.

Step 3

Toss the slaw ingredients together in a medium bowl.

Step 4

Mix the spicy aioli ingredients together in a small bowl.

Step 5

Grill patties on a well-greased, pre-heated grill 4-5 minutes each side until golden and cooked through.

Step 6

Toast or grill the buns.

Step 7

Spread aioli on the bottom bun, top with the patty, then the slaw, cucumber ribbons (optional) , more aioli, then the top bun. Enjoy!!

Step 8

NOTES: To make cucumber ribbons, use a veggie peeler to make long thin slices. No need to peel English or Turkish cucumbers, but do peel those with thick waxy skins.

Step 9

The burger patties can be made ahead and refrigerated until ready to grill.

Step 10

To Pan-Sear: heat 1-2 tablespoons olive oil in a skillet, over medium heat, pan sear turkey burgers until golden and cooked through, about 5-6 minutes on each side. Resist the urge to fiddle with them- let them develop a good crust before flipping.
