How to Make Turkey Swiss Burgers

  1. Preheat grill to medium-high heat or preheat your broiler.
  2. In a large bowl, gently combine 1 lb ground turkey (or chicken), 1/4 cup chopped scallions, and 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce. Avoid overmixing.
  3. Shape the mixture into 4 to 5 patties, about 3/4 inch thick.
  4. Place the patties on the hottest part of the grill or broiler pan.
  5. Cook for 1-2 minutes per side to sear and brown.
  6. Move the burgers to a less direct heat area of the grill (or to a slightly lower rack in the broiler).
  7. Continue cooking for 4-6 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (74°C) and the juices run clear. Use a meat thermometer to ensure they are cooked through.
  8. While the burgers cook, toss 8 oz sliced mushrooms with 1 tablespoon olive oil, a pinch of salt, and a pinch of black pepper.
  9. Place the mushrooms on a sheet of heavy-duty aluminum foil.
  10. Grill or broil the mushrooms alongside the burgers during the last 1-2 minutes of cooking time.
  11. Once the burgers are cooked through, place a slice of Swiss cheese on each patty.
  12. Cook for another minute, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.
  13. Spread mustard on the bottom halves of your burger buns.
  14. Top each burger bun with a patty, grilled mushrooms, and a generous dollop of sour cream. Serve immediately and enjoy!
