Donna’s Spicy Turkey Rice Mini-Burgers

Hello Again!  This recipe is a riff on my Pesto Quinoa Turkey Patties (see 04 August 2014 blog post for recipe) since I ran out of pesto sauce and had leftover Forbidden Rice all ready from the weekend.  This incarnation was spicy yet tender and very fast to mix together and get on the table after a work day.  Give it a try!  Best, Donna:

Donna’s Spicy Turkey Rice Mini-Burgers

Ingredients:

1 pound ground turkey

1¼ cup cooked rice (white, brown or black)

3/4 cup fresh salsa, medium

Salt and pepper to taste

3 Tablespoons Parmesan cheese, grated

Sriracha sauce

Method:

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.  Spray a 12 cup muffin pan with cooking oil.  Gently mix together the first 4 ingredients.  Using a ¼ cup measuring cup, scoop meat mixture into each of the muffin cups.  Sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and top decoratively with Sriracha sauce.  Bake for 30 minutes. 

Serves 4.
