Make You Hot Jalapeno Burger
- 1 tablespoon egg substitute
- 1 tablespoon plain bread crumbs (whole wheat are great if you can find them)
- 4 ounces 99% lean ground turkey
- Salt and pepper, to taste
- Olive oil spray (from a spray bottle, not a store-bought, prefilled one that contains propellant; I used a Misto)
- 3/4 ounce very thinly sliced 75% light Cheddar cheese
- 1 (about 3 1/2-inch-diameter) whole-wheat or whole-grain hamburger bun
- 1 leaf green lettuce
- 1 thin, large tomato slice, or a few small slices
- 6 to 12 thin slices jalapeno chile
- 1 tablespoon low-fat mayonnaise (no more than 2 g fat per tablespoon; I used Best Foods/Hellmanns)
- Preheat a grill to high heat.
- In a small bowl, mix the egg substitute and bread crumbs.
- Mix in the turkey until the ingredients are well combined.
- Shape the turkey into a patty about 1/2 inch in diameter larger than the bun.
- Season with salt and pepper.
- Lightly spray both sides of the patty with olive oil spray.
- Grill it until no longer pink inside, about 2 minutes per side.
- During the last minute of cooking, add the cheese to the patty.
- Also, if desired, toast the bun by placing it, insides face down, on a top grill rack or away from an open flame until just toasted, about 30 seconds.
- Place the bun bottom on a serving plate.
- Add the lettuce, tomato, then jalapeno slices, followed by the patty.
- Spread the inside of the bun top evenly with the mayonnaise.
- Place the bun top on the burger and serve immediately.
