Description
A juicy, stuffed Turkey Cheeseburger (known as a Juicy Lucy) is delicious and easy! Instead of topping your turkey burger with cheese, the cheese is stuffed in the center so it stays melted and gooey.
Yield: 4 | Serving Size: 1burger
Ingredients
4slicespart-skim cheddar cheese slices, or 2% American cheese (0.7 ounces each)
1pound93% lean ground turkey
1teaspoonkosher salt
black pepper, to taste
4hamburger rolls, I use Martins whole wheat 100 calorie potato rolls
4Iceburg lettuce, leaves
red onion, sliced into rings and separated
ripe tomatoes, sliced
sliced pickles
ketchup and mustard, optional, or your favorite condiments, if desired
Instructions
Set grill to medium heat. Clean and oil the grates.
Fold each slice of cheese into quarters to create 4 short stacks.
Divide the ground turkey into 8 equal balls then flatten into 1/4 inch thick patties.
- Place a stack of cheese in the center of 4 patties and top with the remaining 4 patties. Pinch the edges to seal, then push the up the sides so they are an even thickness. Season both sides with salt and black pepper.
- Place patties and oiled grill and cover, cook about 6 minutes per side over medium heat, or until the center is cooked through. Transfer to buns with toppings and be sure to let it cool before biting into the center so you don’t burn your mouth.
