Ingredients
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
Directions
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.
