Turkey Burger Lettuce Wraps
- Prep Time: 15 mins
- Cook Time: 15 mins
- Total Time: 30 mins
- Yield: 4 servings 1x
Ingredients
- 1 pound lean ground turkey
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon chili powder
- 1/2 teaspoon cumin
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 2–4 teaspoons coconut oil (or olive oil)
- 1 avocado, cut into thin slices
- Red onion, cut into thin slices (you won’t need much, less than half, but exact amounts depend on preference)
- 1 head romaine lettuce
- Lime, sliced into wedges
Instructions
- Add your ground turkey to a medium bowl and add your salt, pepper, chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, and onion powder
- Mix together with your hands until it is evenly combined
- Form into 4 patties and set aside
- Heat a large skillet or grill pan over medium heat with a few teaspoons of coconut oil (or olive oil). If pan gets dry, you can add the remaining few
- When hot, add the patties into the pan and cook until the center is no longer pink and the patties are well browned on both sides
- Meanwhile, slice the bottom of the romaine lettuce head off (this allows the leaves to peel off more easily)
- Peel the leaves off the head of romaine and set aside
- When the burgers are cooked and have cooled for a few minutes, slice them into thick strips so you can place them on the lettuce wrap more easily
- To assemble the lettuce wraps, place 2 of the romaine leaves on a plate, add one patty’s worth of slices, 1/4 of the avocado, a few slices of red onion, and a generous squeeze of lime all across the top
