Pesto Turkey Burgers with Grilled Halloumi

Serves 4
Time 20 min
Halloumi cheese is a must-try for grill fans. Its uniquely firm texture allows it to hold together as it browns, resulting in a wonderfully caramelized flavor. Garnish these tasty burgers with your choice of toppings and condiments — fresh tomatoes, avocado and additional pesto are excellent choices.

Method

In a large bowl, combine turkey and pesto.

Form the mixture into 4 patties, each about 3/4-inch thick.

Thread onion slices onto metal skewers; this will help them stay together for ease of flipping.

Prepare a grill for medium heat cooking.

Grill burgers and onions until browned and cooked through, about 4 to 5 minutes per side.

Grill halloumi slices until they are browned and just softened, 2 to 3 minutes per side.

Place burgers in buns and top each with a slice of halloumi and some onions.
