These grilled turkey burgers offer a delicious, high-protein alternative to traditional beef patties without compromising on moisture or depth of flavour. By using dark-meat turkey mince and folding a little smoky aioli directly into the meat, the burgers remain succulent and savoury after grilling. The addition of toasted cumin and coriander seeds provides a sophisticated earthiness that perfectly complements the charred peppers and melted white cheddar cheese.
Ideal for a quick evening meal or a healthy weekend barbecue, this recipe is easily adapted for those who prefer a bit of heat by using Monterey Jack with chillies. Serve these homemade burgers in toasted sesame buns with a handful of peppery rocket and crunchy corn crisps for a satisfying texture. It is a fantastic choice for anyone looking for a lighter, wholesome meal that feels indulgent.

How to make Grilled Turkey Burgers with Cheddar and Smoky Aioli
Tillbaka till innehållToast cumin seeds and coriander seeds in small skillet over medium-high heat until aromatic and slightly darker in colour, shaking skillet often, about 1 1/2 minutes. Cool. Finely grind toasted seeds in spice grinder or in mortar with pestle. Whisk mayonnaise, 2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, fresh lemon juice, smoked paprika, garlic, and ground spices in small bowl. Season aioli to taste with salt and pepper. DO AHEAD: Aioli can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate.
Place turkey in medium bowl. Add 2 tablespoons aioli; mix gently. Using damp hands, divide turkey mixture into 4 equal portions, then form each into scant 3/4-inch thick patty, about 3 1/2 inches in diameter. Using thumb, make small indentation in centre of each burger. DO AHEAD: Can be made 4 hours ahead. Cover and chill.
Prepare barbecue (medium-high heat). Sprinkle burgers with salt and pepper. Brush onion slices and pepper pieces with oil; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Grill onions and peppers until soft and charred, about 4 minutes per side.
Grill turkey burgers 5 minutes. Turn over; grill until almost cooked through, about 4 minutes. Top each burger with 1 cheese slice and grill until meat is cooked through and cheese melts, about 1 minute longer. Place 1 turkey burger on each of 4 bun bottoms. Arrange grilled red pepper pieces, then grilled red onion slices over. Top each with dollop of aioli and some rocket. Cover burgers with bun tops and serve with pickle wedges and corn crisps.
