Instructions

Thoroughly mix the ground turkey, egg, peanut butter, green curry paste, ginger, bread crumbs, green onions, salt and pepper together by hand in a large mixing bowl. Divide mixture evenly into 6 balls. Press each ball into two thin patties. Take one of the patties and place 2 basil leaves and 1 ounce of goat cheese in the center. Place the other patty on top of the first and seal the edges together tightly. Repeat with remaining meat until you have 6 basil and cheese- stuffed burgers. Brush grill with oil and grill burgers on medium high heat for 5-7 minutes on each side. Serve burgers hot on warmed whole wheat buns. Serves six.
