Ingredients
2 c finely shredded savoy cabbage, 7-8 oz1 c fresh tomato salsa, drained1/4 c finely chopped fresh cilantro3 Tbsp sour cream1 1/2 lb ground turkey1/3 c fresh corn kernels1/4 c finely chopped drained pickled jalapeno peppers1 Tbsp chili powder2 tsp minced garlic1 tsp kosher salt1 tsp ground cumin4 Whole grain buns
Directions
1. In a medium bowl, mix cabbage, salsa, cilantro and sour cream. Cover and refrigerate. Stir; drain well just before serving.
2. Prepare grill for direct cooking over medium heat (350-450 degree). In a large bowl, gently mix turkey, corn, jalapeno, chili powder, garlic, salt and cumin; shape into 4 patties, each about 3/4" thick. With thumb or back of spoon, make shallow indentation about 1" wide in center of each patty so centers are about 1/2"thick. (This helps patties cook evenly and prevents them from puffing on grill.)
3. Grill patties over direct heat, with lid closed as much as possible, until no longer pink in centers but still juicy, 10-15 minutes, turning once. During last minute of cooking time, lightly toast cut sides of buns over direct heat. Top patties with slaw; serve on toasted buns.
