Instructions
Prep the Burgers
- In a large glass bowl, mix together the turkey, scallions, ginger, honey, curry powder, cinnamon, salt, and pepper. Mix until just combined and ingredients are evenly distributed.
- Form into 4 patties. Cover and place in the fridge while you make the dill yogurt sauce, or, let them stay in the fridge for 2 to 12 hours.
- Before grilling, add the soy and Worcestershire sauces together in a small bowl. Set aside.
Put Together the Dill Yogurt Sauce
- Add all of the yogurt sauce ingredients into a small bowl and mix together with a whisk or fork. Cover and place in the refrigerator until ready to serve the burgers.
Grilling And Serving
- Heat your gas or charcoal grill to medium-high heat.
- If desired, butter the buns, and bring them out to the grill.
- Spray the grate of the grill with cooking spray. Place the turkey patties on the grill over direct heat. Brush the soy/Worcestershire mixture over the tops of the patties. Cook for 7 minutes and then use a spatula to carefully flip them. Brush again with the soy/Worcestershire mixture.
- After flipping the burgers, place the pineapple slices on the grill over direct heat. Carefully flip the pineapple sliced after about 3½ minutes. After a total of 7 to 8 minutes, or until the burgers are cooked through (160 to 165°F), remove them from the grill along with the pineapple slices.
- Place the buns, cut-side down, on the grill. Keep an eye on them, brioche buns don't take long to get browned and toasty. Usually only a couple of minutes at the most.
- Build the burgers by smearing a tablespoon of the dill yogurt onto the toasted bottom bun. Add a piece of the green leaf lettuce, and then the burger, and then a grilled pineapple slice on top. Add the top bun and serve at once.
Notes
- Ground chicken is an excellent substitute for ground turkey.
- Both the patties and yogurt sauce are best when allow to sit covered in the fridge for several hours, or overnight.
- You can cook the patties in a skillet over medium-high heat for about 6 to 8 minutes per side. Use an instant-read thermometer to ensure the internal temperature reaches 160 to 165°F.
- Canned pineapple slices that have been drained can be used in place of fresh pineapple. They will be much softer, so handle them with care, especially on the grill.
- Leftover grilled turkey burgers will keep in an air-tight container in the fridge for up to 4 days. The prepared turkey meat can be frozen for up to 2 months.
