Teriyaki Pineapple Turkey Burgers w/ Baked Crinkle Fries

Dinner Tonight: Teriyaki Pineapple Turkey Burgers w/ Baked Crinkle Fries





It was a beautiful day out today, sunny and in the mid 50's. 60 tomorrow but rain and snow flurries possible Monday. So today I had somebody clean all our gutters out, which were full of leaves. Got the car washed and cleaned on the inside also. Long Spring cleaning list if it ever warms up! For dinner a Teriyaki Pineapple Turkey Burger w/ Baked Crinkle Fries.



To make the burger you’ll need; Kikkoman Less Sodium Teriyaki Marinade and Sauce, Dole Pineapple Panko Bread Crumbs. the original recipe made 4 burgers I broke the recipe down to make 2, 1 for lunch tomorrow. When frying the burger keep a close eye on it because it start to burn due to the Teriyaki Sauce.

slices and juice, Honeysuckle White Extra Lean Ground Turkey (99/1), fresh Ginger (grated), and


To prepare it just stir together Kikkoman Teriyaki Base & Glaze and reserved pineapple juice in a small bowl. Remove 2 tablespoons sauce for burgers. Mix together turkey, ginger, Kikkoman Panko Bread Crumbs and 1 teaspoon Teriyaki mixture and shape into a pattie. I then pan fried it in Extra Virgin Olive Oil about 4 1/2 minutes per side brushing it with the remaining Teriyaki mixture. Placed the pineapple slice in the pan and cooked until lightly golden brown. Served the burger on a Aunt Millie's Light Whole Grain Bun with, Light Mayonnaise and Pineapple. This makes one fine and juicy burger! The Teriyaki Sauce is perfect with the Turkey and Pineapple and the Mayo just adds to the flavor. I left the original recipe at the bottom of the post, makes 4 Turkey Burgers.



For a side I baked some Ore Ida Crinkle Cut Fries, served with a side of Hunt's Ketchup. Then for dessert later a slice of Pillsbury Nut Quick Bread topped with a Pineapple slice (Leftover from dinner).
