Directions

  1. Prepare grill for high direct heat: Prepare your grill (either gas or charcoal) for direct high heat. You can also cook the burgers on the stove-top on a griddle or cast iron frying pan.
  2. Combine burger ingredients, form into patties: In a large bowl, gently combine the turkey meat, breadcrumbs, chives, basil, green onions, mayonnaise, Worcestershire sauce, chili sauce, salt and pepper. Work the mixture with your hands until it is just mixed. Don't over mix or your burgers will end up tough.
  3. Form four patties, about 1-inch thick.
  4. Sprinkle the patties with salt and pepper. Grill them for 5-7 minutes on each side, until the internal temperature of the patties reach 165°F on a meat thermometer. Turkey burgers should be cooked through, not rare.
  5. Toward the end of the cooking, put the buns on the grill to toast for about a minute.
  6. Remove the burgers from the grill to a platter, cover and let rest for 5 minutes.
  7. Whisk the mayonnaise, vinegar, mustard, sugar, red pepper flakes together in a small bowl.
  8. Add to the cabbage, arugula, and basil in a larger bowl right before serving.
  9. Assemble the burgers: Assemble the burgers by placing each burger on a bottom bun, and stacking a tomato slice, some pickles, and a bit of coleslaw on top, and then topping with the top bun.
