Spicy Turkey Burgers

1 1/4 pounds lean ground turkey

1/2 cup mild salsa (or 1/2 cup chopped tomato, diced jalapeno,

    a squeeze of lime juice, and salt to taste)

1/2 cup finely chopped shallots

3 tablespoons vegetable oil, plus additional 1 tablespoon for frying

1 tablespoon chipotle-flavored hot sauce

1 teaspoon ground cumin

1 teaspoon salt

1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper

Mix ground turkey, salsa, shallots, 3 tablespoons oil, hot sauce, cumin, salt, and pepper in large bowl.

Shape turkey mixture into four 4-inch-diameter patties.

Heat 1 tablespoon oil in large nonstick or cast iron skillet over medium-high heat.  Add burgers; cook until brown, about 3 minutes per side.  Reduce heat to low.  Sauté until burgers are cooked through, about 4 minutes, turning occasionally.

Serve on rolls, with optional lettuce, tomato, cheddar cheese, salsa, and/or chipotle mayonnaise.

Makes 4 burgers.
