Turkey burgers - Southwestern Style baby

• I've been enjoying my Greek turkey burger recipe for awhile now, but decided to switch it up tonight and go Southwestern.  This was a huge hit with the family.  They turned out incredibly moist and flavorful, which can sometimes be a challenge when you are working with turkey breast.  So if you give this one a try, you will not be disappointed I'm sure!!
• 
  
• Ingredients:
• 1.2 pounds ground turkey breast
• 2 teaspoons minced garlic 
• 1/4 cup white onion, finely chopped
• 1/2 cup red bell pepper, finely chopped
• 1 teaspoon dried thyme leaves
• 1 teaspoon dried cilantro
• 1 teaspoon ground cumin
• 1 teaspoon ground red cayenne pepper
• 2 jalapeno peppers, seeded and finely chopped
• 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
• good sprinkle of salt and black pepper

Directions:

Gently mix the ground turkey together with all of the ingredients listed.  Form into 6 patties.  Drizzle a nonstick skillet with extra virgin olive oil.  Cook the patties on medium high heat for about 7 minutes each side or until fully cooked.  Serve in a bun or bunless......your choice!!
