Ingredients

  • 1 pound ground turkey or chicken
  • 1/2 cup barbecue sauce
  • 1 can (4 oz) Old El Paso™ Chopped Green Chiles, drained
  • 4 slices (1 ounce each) Monterey Jack cheese with jalapeño peppers
  • 4 hamburger buns, split

Steps

  • 1
    Heat coals or gas grill for direct heat.
  • 2
    Mix turkey, barbecue sauce and chilies. Shape mixture into 4 patties, each about 1 inch thick.
  • 3
    Grill patties covered 4 to 6 inches from medium coals 14 to 16 minutes, turning once, until turkey is no longer pink in center. About 1 minute before burgers are done, top each with cheese slice. Grill until cheese is melted. Serve on buns.

Tips from the Betty Crocker Kitchens

  • tip 1
    Whole-grain hamburger buns give you more fiber than white. Look for the words “whole wheat flour” on the label; many “wheat” breads are simply white bread with added color.
  • tip 2
    Turn up the heat by using 2 or 3 chopped fresh jalapeño chilies instead of the canned chilies.
  • tip 3
    Broiling Directions: Set oven control to broil. Place patties on rack in broiler pan. Broil with tops about 3 inches from heat 10 to 14 minutes, turning once, until turkey is no longer pink in center. About 1 minute before burgers are done, top each with cheese slice. Broil until cheese is melted.
