- 2 pounds red potatoes, unpeeled
- Salt
- 20 ounces ground turkey
- 1/3 cup plain breadcrumbs
- 1 large egg
- 1 1/2 tablespoons chopped fresh sage
- 1/4 cup plus 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil (EVOO)
- Four slices cheddar cheese (1 ounce each), quartered
- 1/4 cup white wine vinegar
- 3 tablespoons snipped chives (optional)
- Dijon mustard
- 8 small dinner rolls or potato rolls, split
Cut the potatoes into 1/2-inch cubes, place in a large pot and cover with 1 inch of water. Salt the water and bring to a boil over high heat. Continue boiling until the potatoes are tender, about 10 minutes.
In a medium mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey with the breadcrumbs, egg, sage and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Divide the mixture into eighths and form into 1/2-inch thick patties.
Heat 1 tablespoon of EVOO in a large grill pan over medium heat. When the EVOO is rippling hot, add the patties and cook, flipping once, until cooked through, about 4 minutes per side. Place two small cheese squares on each burger.
When the potatoes are cooked, drain them and immediately toss with the remaining 1/4 cup EVOO, vinegar, 1/2 teaspoon salt and the chives.
Serve each burger on a roll spread with mustard. Serve two burgers on each plate with the potato salad.
