Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb ground turkey
  • 1 1/2 tbsp minced fresh rosemary
  • 4 whole cloves garlic, minced
  • 2 tsp kosher salt, divided
  • 1/2 tsp cracked black pepper
  • 1/4 tsp red pepper flakes
  • 2 cups shallots sliced 1/8" thick
  • 4 tbsp avocado oil, divided
  • 1 cup mayonaise
  • 1/2 cup crumbled gorgonzola
  • 1 cup fresh arugula
  • 8 whole slider buns

Instructions
 

Caramelized Onions

  • In a deep skillet, heat 2 tbsp avocado oil over medium low heat
  • Add sliced shallots and cook for 15 minutes, stirring every few minutes
  • Add 1/2 tsp of kosher salt and continue cooking until deeply caramelized, about 10-15 minutes more.

Gorgonzola Mayonaise

  • In a small bowl, combine mayonaise and crumbled gorgonzola. Stir until well combined.

Rosemary Garlic Turkey Sliders

  • In a bowl combine ground turkey, minced fresh rosemary, minced garlic, 1.5 teaspoons of salt, black pepper and red pepper flakes. Mix until just combined.
  • Using a 1/4 cup measuring cup, scoop out the turkey mix and then flatten into 1/2" thick patties.
  • Heat a large skillet over medium high heat with 2tbsp of avocado oil
  • Working in batches, fry each patty for about 5-7 minutes on each side, until golden brown and internal temperature reaches 155.
  • Remove from heat and cover with foil for 5 minutes so internal temperature can reach 165.
  • Assemble by smearing the gorgonzola mayo on the slider bun, top with a turkey patty, caramelized onions and fresh arugula. Enjoy!

Notes

*Ground turkey thighs will be juiciest if you can find them.
*The caramelized onions will yield only 1/2 cup from the 2 cups you start with so if you want leftovers, start with 4 cups worth.
