Ingredients

• 1 egg, beaten
• ½ cup shredded Cheddar cheese
• ½ cup bread crumbs
• salt and ground black pepper to taste
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• ¼ teaspoon ground cumin
• ¼ pound bacon
• 1 (20 ounce) package ground turkey
• 1 jalapeno pepper, diced
• ⅓ cup finely chopped yellow onion

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.

Step 2

Place bacon in a large skillet and cook over medium-high heat, turning occasionally, until evenly browned, about 10 minutes; drain and cool on a plate lined with paper towels. Crumble bacon.

Step 3

Mix bacon, turkey, bread crumbs, Cheddar cheese, yellow onion, egg, jalapeno pepper, garlic, cumin, salt, and pepper together in a bowl; shape mixture into eight 1/4-pound patties.

Step 4

Cook the turkey burgers on the preheated grill until no longer pink in the center and the juices run clear, 7 to 10 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
