INGREDIENTS

8 oz ground turkey

1 oz blue cheese crumbles

1 tbsp buffalo hot sauce

1 tsp avocado oil

2 large leaves butter lettuce leaves

0.25 cup red onion

0.25 tsp sea salt

0.25 tsp black pepper

0.25 tsp garlic powder

PREPARATION

• 1

  In a medium bowl, combine the ground turkey, sea salt, black pepper, and garlic powder, mixing gently with your hands to avoid overworking the meat.

• 2

  Form the mixture into two equal-sized patties, making a small thumbprint indentation in the center of each to ensure they cook evenly.

• 3

  Heat the avocado oil in a cast-iron skillet or non-stick pan over medium-high heat until the oil is shimmering.

• 4

  Place the patties in the pan and sear for 5-6 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 165°F and the exterior is golden brown.

• 5

  During the final minute of cooking, sprinkle the blue cheese crumbles over the patties and cover the pan with a lid to allow the cheese to soften.

• 6

  Remove the patties from the heat and drizzle the buffalo hot sauce directly over the melted cheese.

• 7

  Place each patty onto a large butter lettuce leaf and top with thinly sliced red onion before serving.
