Turkey Burgers - Jerk Style!

Turkey Burgers - Jerk Style!


1. Combine couscous and water in a small bowl; let stand for 20 to 30 minutes, or until the couscous is tender and the water is absorbed.

2. Meanwhile, heat oil in a small nonstick skillet over low heat. Add bell pepper, garlic, thyme, curry powder, cumin, allspice, ginger, salt, pepper, paprika and cayenne. Cook, stirring, until the bell pepper is slightly softened, 1 to 2 minutes. Let cool.

3. Prepare a grill or the broiler pan by oiling (before heating). Then preheat grill or broiler.

4. Combine turkey, the couscous and the bell-pepper mixture in a medium-sized bowl; mix thoroughly but lightly. Shape into four 3/4-inch-thick patties. Grill or broil the patties until browned and no longer pink inside, about 5 minutes per side. Place on buns and garnish with tomato slices and lettuce leaves.
