Description

Shredded iceberg lettuce topped with ranch dressing is the perfect side dish. End with scoops of lime sorbet drizzled with tequila and sprinkled with lime peel. Canned chipotle chilies are available at Latin American markets, specialty foods stores, and some supermarkets.

Ingredients

10 ounces ground turkey
1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons chopped green onions
6 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
2 teaspoons minced canned chipotle chilies
2 teaspoons ground cumin
2 9- to 10-inch flour tortillas
4 tablespoons purchased guacamole
Purchased fresh salsa

Directions

  1. Gently mix turkey, 1/2 cup green onions, 4 tablespoons cilantro, chipotle chilies, and cumin in medium bowl. Form into two 7-inch-long by 21/2-inch-wide patties. (Can be made 8 hours ahead. Cover and chill.)
  2. Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Grill burgers until cooked through, about 5 minutes per side. Wrap tortillas in foil; grill until heated through. Unwrap tortillas; transfer to 2 plates. Spread 2 tablespoons guacamole down center of each tortilla. Place burgers atop guacamole. Sprinkle with 2 tablespoons green onions and 2 tablespoons cilantro. Fold each tortilla to partially enclose burger. Serve with salsa.
