Cooking Steps
- Thinly slice tomato.
- Peel, then cut half the onion (whole onion for 4 ppl) into 1/4-inch rounds. Separate into rings.
- Thinly slice half the jalapeño into 1/4-inch rounds, removing seeds for less heat.
- Core, then finely chop remaining jalapeño. (TIP: We suggest using gloves when prepping jalapeños!).
- Add vinegar, jalapeño rounds, onions, 1 tsp (2 tsp) sugar and 2 tbsp (4 tbsp) water to a small pot. Season with salt.
- Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Cook, stirring often, until sugar dissolves, 1-2 min.
- Remove from heat.
- Transfer pickled jalapeños and onions, including liquid, to a small bowl.
- Set aside in the fridge to cool.
- Meanwhile, combine chopped jalapeños, cream cheese and half the cheddar cheese in another small bowl. (NOTE: This is your patty filling.)
- Combine spicy mayo and 1 tsp (2 tsp) water in a third small bowl. (NOTE: This is your spicy mayo drizzle.)
- Add turkey, panko and 1/4 tsp (1/2 tsp) salt to a medium bowl. Season with pepper, then combine.
- Form into four 4-inch-wide patties (8 patties for 4 ppl). Divide patty filling between 2 patties (4 patties for 4 ppl), then top with remaining patties.
- Firmly pinch edges of patties together to seal in filling, then gently reshape into rounds.
- Heat a large non-stick pan over medium-high heat.
- When the pan is hot, add 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) oil, then patties. (NOTE: Don't overcrowd the pan; cook patties in 2 batches if needed.)
- Sear until golden-brown, 2-3 min per side.
- Remove from heat, then transfer to a parchment-lined baking sheet. Sprinkle remaining cheese over patties.
- Bake in the top of the oven until cooked through, 6-9 min.**
- Meanwhile, add 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) pickling liquid and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) oil to a large bowl.
- Season with salt and pepper, then whisk to combine.
- Add spring mix, then toss to coat.
- Drain pickled jalapeños and onions, then discard remaining pickling liquid.
- Divide salad between plates.
- Top with tomatoes, patties and pickled jalapeños and onions.
- Drizzle spicy mayo drizzle over top.
If you've opted to get turkey, cook it in the same way the recipe instructs you to cook the beef, but disregard the tip to add an egg.**
