Cranberry Turkey Burgers

• 6 tablespoons couscous (whole-wheat if available)
• 12 cup boiling water
• 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
• 1 small onion, diced
• 1 stalk celery, diced
• 1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
• 1 12 teaspoons chopped fresh sage
• 12 teaspoon salt
• 12 teaspoon fresh ground pepper
• 14 cup dried cranberries
• 1 lb 93% lean ground turkey

1. Place couscous in a large bowl.
2. Pour in boiling water, stir and set aside until the water is absorbed, about 5 minutes.
3. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
4. Add onion and cook, stirring, for 1 minute.
5. Add celery and cook, stirring, until softened, about 3 minutes.
6. Add thyme, sage, salt and pepper; cook until fragrant, about 20 seconds more.
7. Transfer the mixture to the bowl with the couscous, add cranberries and stir to combine.
8. Let cool for 5 minutes.
9. Add turkey and stir until combined; do not overmix.
10. Form the mixture into 6 patties.
11. Coat a large nonstick skillet, preferably cast-iron, with cooking spray and set over medium-high heat for 2 minutes.
12. Add the patties, reduce heat to medium, and cook for 4 minutes.
13. Turn gently to avoid breakage, and cook on the other side for 2 minutes.
14. Cover and continue to cook until lightly browned but still juicy (the juices should run clear, not pink), about 4 minutes more.
15. (An instant-read thermometer inserted in the center should read 165 F.).
