Hawaiian Burgers

Hawaiian Burgers

I always order Hawaiian burgers when we go to Red Robin, so I decided to try making them at home.  I ate mine on bibb lettuce and served them on buns for my family.

Recipe adapted from Food Network

Ingredients:

2 pounds lean ground turkey

1 cup shredded/diced carrots

½ sweet onion diced

½ cup panko breadcrumbs

2 tablespoons teriyaki sauce

1 can sliced pineapple

1 bell pepper cut into rings

Sliced provolone cheese

Sauce-

½ cup plain nonfat Greek yogurt

2 tablespoons teriyaki sauce

1 tablespoon honey

Serve on bibb lettuce or on buns

Directions:

  1. Spray a nonstick pan with olive oil spray.  Add the onion and carrots with 2 tablespoons teriyaki sauce.  Cook on medium for 10 minutes to soften.
  2. Add ground turkey to a large bowl and break up. 
  3. Add carrots, onions, and breadcrumbs and mix together well.
  4. Divide mixture into 7-8 patties.
  5. I freeze the patties for 15-20 minutes before cooking to firm them up.
  6. Air fry the pineapple and sliced pepper at 400 for 15 minutes flipping once.
  7. Preheat grill to medium heat.
  8. Grill burgers for 4 minutes per side.  Add cheese last minute of grilling.
  9. Sauce- Mix together yogurt, teriyaki, and honey.  Serve on burger.
  10. Place burger on bun or lettuce and top with pineapple, pepper, and sauce.
  11. Enjoy!
