French Onion Turkey Burgers

I was trying to think of a different way to make turkey burger and looked in the pantry to see what I had which was a can of French onion soup, english muffins, and red wine. I mixed the ingredients together then grill the burgers which I baste with more French onion soup while they cook. I serve them on english muffins instead of hamburger rolls.  The recipe makes 4 burgers.

Ingredients:

  • 1 pound ground turkey
  • 1 Tablespoon Worcestershire
  • 1 Tablespoon red wine
  • 1 Tablespoon diced sweet onion
  • ¼ cup can French onion soup plus 3 Tablespoons
  • ¼ cup plain panko bread crumbs
  • dashes ground black pepper
  • 1 medium tomato
  • 4 lettuce leaves
  • 4 sliced white American cheese
  • 4 English muffins

 Instructions:

1. In a large mixing bowl mix together turkey, wine, Worcestershire, onion, bread crumbs, black pepper, and 3 Tablespoons French onion soup. Once thoroughly mixed form 4 patties about ¼ pound each then place in refrigerator for 2 hours.

2. Heat the grill on medium-high heat then grill burgers over direct heat for 20-25 minutes or until cooked through turning once halfway through. The last 10 minutes baste with ¼ cup French onion soup. The last 5 minutes melt cheese then remove from heat and serve with muffins, tomato, and lettuce.
