Turkey Burgers with Creamy Cucumber Relish Recipe (+)

Directions

To prepare burgers:

In a large bowl, combine all of the burger ingredients until incorporated. Do not over mix. Pat mixture into 8 burgers of the same size.
Cover and refrigerate until ready to grill.

To prepare relish:

If using regular cucumbers, seed them before grating. English cucumbers are naturally seeded, so you can skip that stage. Coarsely grate cucumber. Place cucumber into a sieve and squeeze out all excess moisture.
Mix cucumber and remaining relish ingredients together in a medium bowl and refrigerate until ready to use.
Spray or brush burgers with oil on both sides and grill on medium heat. Grill approximately 7 minutes, or until cooked through, turning once.
Serve immediately with relish spooned on top.
