Sara’s Spicy Boozy Turkey Burgers

• 2 lb ground dark meat turkey
• 1 c minced onion
• 3 T dried bread crumbs (we use panko)
• 2 T tequila
• 2 T olive oil
• 1 T minced garlic
• 2-3 tsp minced serrano chiles (or to taste)
• 2 tsp minced fresh oregano – or about 3/4 tsp dried oregano
• 2 tsp Diamond kosher salt
• 1/2 tsp ground cumin
• 1/2 tsp ground coriander
• 8 small-ish hamburger buns (brioche is what we often use)
• mashed avocado with a squeeze of lime or lemon, tomatoes, red onions for toppings (optional)

Combine all of the ingredients (except buns and toppings) in a large bowl; use your hands to mix well.  Form into 8 patties.

Grill over a medium hot fire – about 4-6 minutes per side or until cooked through – or fry in a cast iron pan to which you’ve added about 1 T oil – on medium high heat for the same length of time.
