Rachael Rays Spinach Artichoke Burgers Recipes

SPINACH-ARTICHOKE BURGERS

Steps:

• Preheat a grill, grill pan or large non-stick skillet to medium-high. If using a grill pan or skillet, preheat the broiler.
• Place the ground turkey in a medium bowl and season with salt and pepper. Add the lemon zest, parmigiano-regiano, finely chopped garrlic, spinach, thyme, and a drizzle of olive oil (about 2 tablespoons), and combine. Form into 4 patties and cook the burgers until firm and cooked through, about 6 minutes on each side.
• If cooking the patties on a grill, place the bread alongside the patties, grill on both sides and remove. If using a grill pan or skillet, broil the bread on both sides until toasted. Rub the toasted bread with the remaining garlic. Place the bread on plates and top with a slice of tomato, then season the tomatoes with salt and pepper.
• In the last two minutes of the burgers' cooking time, divide the sliced artichokes evenly among the burgers, then cover each with 2 slices of provolone. If cooking on the grill, drop the lid to melt the cheese. If cooking on the stovetop, tent your grill pan or skillet with aluminum foil. Place a burger on top of each of the tomato slices and serve immediately.
