These burgers rely on jerk seasoning, typically made with allspice, cinnamon, cloves, sugar, cumin, thyme and lots of hot chili peppers, for their hot and spicy flavor.

Turkey Burgers with Mango Slaw

turkey

jerk seasoning,

green apple,

scallions

panko (Japanese breadcrumbs)

salt and pepper

mango chutney, roughly chopped

green cabbage

carrot, shredded

Canola oil,

hamburger buns

Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium high. Mix the turkey, jerk seasoning, apple, 1/4 cup scallions and the panko in a bowl; season with salt and pepper. Form into four 1-inch-thick patties and make a small indentation in the middle of each with your thumb to prevent it from puffing up on the grill. Refrigerate.

Whisk the mayonnaise and chutney in a large bowl. Add the cabbage, carrot and the remaining 1/4 cup scallions, season with salt and pepper and toss to coat.

Brush the grill with canola oil. Grill the turkey patties until browned and cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes per side.

Brush the cut sides of the buns with mayonnaise and sprinkle with jerk seasoning; toast on the grill, about 30 seconds. Serve the burgers and slaw on the buns.

We have been making this recipe for years. It is unique, extremely flavorful and easy to make. When served, no one can guess that a green apple was one of the ingredients. The slight sweetness of the mango slaw pairs perfectly with the burger.  We did not deviate from this Bobby Flay recipe at all.  It is an outstanding dish.

So delish.  Always a hit.  Add a slice of red onion. 

A real favorite in our home.  We fix these more than beef burgers.  Delicious.  I do add more of the jerk and also about 8 ounces of spicy Italian chicken sausage.

Absolutely fantastic!  We added chopped mangoes to the coleslaw, and that put it over the top.

A-MAZE-ING!  These were so easy to make and absolutely delicious.  It may be the best recipe I found on food network.  Even my beef loving husband can't stop talking about how good this dish is.  Thanks for posting, it is one of my new favorites.

it amazes me that most dont follow the recipes ....these are excellent AS IS ..great flavors

This is one of my family's favorite turkey burger recipes. Even thse with not-so-adventurous palates ask me to make these when I come to visit! We rarely have the dry jerk seasoning around and usually substitute jamaican jerk paste or even jerk marinade. It all still turns out well no matter what. Only made the slaw recipe the first time around and never repeated it. Not memorable like the burgers.

Very good. Ended up making my own jerk seasoning. The coleslaw is a must for this burger.

OMG! These are the best turkey burgers I have ever had, restaurant quality. The apple keeps the meat nice and moist and the slaw provides the perfect crunch and extra flavor. I used whole wheat buns that I toasted up nice before adding the slaw and the crunch from the bread and slaw with the juicy burger truly was amazing. A definite keeper!

Very surprising combination of flavors.  I didn't have jerk seasoning on hand, so I looked it up online and simply added what was listed, which was a combo of dried thyme, granualted onion, allspice and a few other things.  I used the slaw as an accompaniment, not as a topping, and served it and the burgers with some bread on the side.  Very filling but light.  Will definitely make again.

I am always looking for something a little different and this recipe fit the bill.  The flavors went so well together.  The more bites I took the more I liked it!

This is a great recipe. But, the essential ingredient for truly Authentic Jerk Chicken is cooking over PIMENTO WOOD. Pimento wood is wood from the Jamaican Allspice tree and gives Jerk it's unique flavor. Google pimento wood - easy to order Ya Mon

Great burger. I'll add a bit more jerk seasoning next time. 

Delicious, followed recipe accept just served the patty onto of the scrumptious slaw and a side of green beans for lower carb!

This recipe was almost perfect. I followed all instructions and we all enjoyed them very much but agree that the panko makes the patties a little too meatballish... lol. I will leave that out next time. 4.5 stars 

I followed the recipe to T (unlike many others  And these burgers ROCK.  Alone the burger is good and the slaw is good but together they are Magic!

Really delicious and super easy even though I left out the grated apple.  Will definitely include it next time.

So delicious. I always substitute greek yogurt for mayo, and in this slaw I don't think the difference was palpable. I used a spicy mango lime chutney, which went really well with the caribbean-style burger. This will be a regular on the summer dinner menu. 

I changed the recipe a little by using ground chicken.  I added feta cheese to the mixture and then sprinkled the burgers with more jerk seasoning. I let the burgers rest in the refrigerator for five hours. Everyone really enjoyed the burgers.

Amazing receipe! Have made it several times. 

Ok, so I didn't make turkey burgers, I made beef because that's what was in my fridge. Still - oh my God! Absolutely amazing flavor and to quote my husband, "these are the best hamburgers I've ever tasted in my life." We added fresh mango slices and it worked perfectly. The chutney was hard to come by but I finally found some at Kroger's called Patak's - used the hot mango one and I really think it makes a difference as the flavor is unique and makes the cole slaw stand out in a good way. I don't like cole slaw but this one with chutney was soooo good! If you can't find any, I highly suggest making your own from an online recipe. It was time consuming to make the burgers and the slaw from scratch but so worth it. And as good as these were with beef, I think the flavors would be even better with turkey as the recipe is supposed to be. TRY THEM :

Best dang turkey burger! I used panko italian blend bread crumbs since thats what i had at home, i didn't use my jerk seasoning cuz i didn't like the way it smelled (it made me nervous used my own season blend &amp; added yellow onions &amp; scallions. I did not use this slaw recipe due to my store not having mango chutney,BUT THE NEELEY'S have the best freaking slaw receipe in the WORLD on here. I used that recipe and it was one of the best decisions i have ever made. My hubby &amp; his brother (who hates turkey LOVED IT!

These have easily become my favorite burgers to make, they're absolutley delicious! I like the more every time I make them.

Didnt bother with the chutney, instead i just marinated diced mango in lime, honey, and cayenne pepper before adding the mayo, carrot, and cabbage. They turned out really good. I'm definitely making these again, only next time, i'll try it with the chutney : )

FYI the mango chutney called for here is simply the chutney you find in the grocery store eisle with the ketchup, mustard, A1 sauce and barbecue.  It's called Major Grey's and they have regular and hot.

I made them with ground beef and pork. They were delicious!I could not find the chutney in the store so i made my own. plenty of recipes on-line. The chutney takes some time to make(about 1 to 1.5 hours to simmer), but well worth it. 

These burgers are unbelievable! I served them to my family, who wouldn't touch a turkey burger in a million years and they all LOVED them. They keep adding it to the request list for my weekly menus.  I can't find mango chutney, so I buy canned or fresh and doctor the slaw up myself. Still amazing!

Absolutely tasty... made them with ground chicken as we had no ground turkey on hand! All members of the family agreed: quick, simple and delicious. 

These turkey burgers were delicious!  This recipe is a keeper!  We will have these again this week! Very Yummy! :)

Being of Caribbean decent, I love Caribbean flavors, and must say this was freaking delicious!  I wasn't too sure about adding the sweet mango chutney to the recipe, but it works!!  I actually used a mango salsa which I mixed in with the cole slaw.   It was such a perfect counterpoint to the spicy jerk seasoning.  Try it, try it, try it!

My husband and I are on a diet, so I thought this would be a good choice.  Obviously, we left out the bun.  But, to my great surprise when we substituted plain, fat-free yogurt for the mayo, the slaw was fantastic too!  Our grocery store carries a spicy mango chutney, so we used that.  We actually went back and made more slaw to have for lunch sided throughout the week.    

My husband is not necessarily a fan of ground turkey, but even he said that these were absolutely delicious. Very easy to prepare and lots of flavor.

I love love love these burgers!  Everyone that I make these for keeps asking for more!  I never review recipes but I found the need to do this one!!! The mayo on the buns melts just like butter!  I also made them with tofu and were very good marinating in the slaw mixture all night... yummo.  Give this recipes to everyone!

We've made this reciple several times now.  Using bagged cole slaw and jarred chutney make for an easy slaw.  Excellent flavor!

These turkey burgers were delicious.  Next time I'll use more apple- it added a lot of sweetness and moisture.  The slaw was good too.  I didn't have mango chutney so added a fresh mango, apricot jam and some jerk seasoning to the slaw.  It turned out really well.  We will be making these again.

We LOVED these burgers.  I used 1.25 lbs of turkey and made five burgers. I also used 1/2 bag of coleslaw mix for the slaw.  This was easy and yummy.  I will be making these all summer on the grill.

I took this out of Food Network Food magazine. I love turkey burgers and wanted to try another variation. The jerk seasoning made them so tasty. I will lighten it up slightly because it was a little spicy for the kids. It was just right for me and my husband. I didn't have mango chutney so I just added equal amounts of apricot preserves. The kids even loved the slaw! I will make these over an over again!
