Ingredients

Turkery burgers:

  • 1 # ground turkey
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tbsp coconut flour
  • 2 large scallions or green onions, chopped
  • 1.5 tsp or small thumb-size piece of fresh ginger
  • 3 garlic cloves
  • 1 tbsp coconut aminos

Coleslaw:

  • 1 cup shredded carrots
  • 1 cup shredded red or green cabbage
  • 1 scallion or green onion, thinly sliced
  • 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
  • 1 tbsp honey or maple syrup
  • 1 tsp sriracha
  • 1 tsp black or white sesame seeds

Spicy mayonnaise:

  • ⅓ cup mayonnaise
  • 1-2 tbsp sriracha
  • 2 tsp lime juice

Instructions

For the coleslaw:

  • To make the slaw, combine all the ingredients and mix well. Cover and place in the refrigerator while you make the spicy mayonnaise and turkey burgers.

For the spicy mayonnaise:

  • To make the spicy aioli, combine the mayo, sriracha, and lime juice. Mix well, then cover and place in the fridge.

For the burgers:

  • In a food processor, combine the chopped scallions, ginger, garlic, and coconut aminos. Process until everything is finely chopped. Transfer the mixture to a medium-sized bowl.
  • To the same bowl, add the ground turkey and mix until everything is well combined. Scoop out ½ cup of the turkey burger mixture and form a burger patty. Continue with the remaining mixture until you have four burger patties.
  • Place the turkey burgers on a preheated grill and brown on both sides until the burgers reach an internal temperature of 165 degrees. Once cooked through, remove the burgers from the grill and allow them to rest for 5-10 minutes.
  • To assemble the burgers, place a burger patty on a bun and top with the coleslaw. Spread the spoicy mayonnaise on the bun and enjoy!
