Talk about a twist on classics, y'all! Today I've combined two of my most favorite things together; spicy thai peanut dressing and burgers! I know it sounds crazy, but just hear me out. These burgers are wholesome, full of flavor, and so juicy. They are perfect for summer cookouts, being light enough not to weigh you down with any richness.
This is definitely a more refreshing burger with the cool crisp slaw, and yet is still filling enough to satisfy even the most empty of tummies. The secret? It's in the sauce! The peanut sauce that is. The Spicy Thai Peanut Sauce on this burger is what seals the deal for me. I like a good messy burger, especially when I'm entertaining!
I've left this recipe easy to double or triple for even larger parties, but it makes enough for 6 good sized patties as it is. I started this recipe off by creating a perfectly Thai Spicy peanut dressing using Peter Pan® Peanut Butter. I love that Peter Pan Peanut Butter has 8 grams of protein. There's a huge selection of varieties, so there’s something for everyone to love!

The burger itself is made using lean ground turkey that I loaded up with a couple of egg whites and some grated carrot. Both of those things work together to get that much needed moisture back into the turkey patty.
Making a sauce isn't all Peanut Butter is good for though! Find more summer cookout inspiration using Peter Pan Peanut Butter!

• 2 Tbsp. Creamy Peter Pan Peanut Butter
• 1 Tbsp. Ginger Root

Burger:
• 1 1/4 Lb. Lean Ground Turkey
• 2/3 C. Shredded Carrots
• 1/4 C. Whole Wheat Bread Crumbs
• 2 Tbsp. Spicy Peanut Dressing
• 2 Egg Whites
• 1 Chopped Green Onion
• 1 Garlic Clove, Minced
• Pinch of Turmeric
• Pinch of CUrry Powder
• 1 1/2 C. Dry Slaw Mix
• Sesame Seeds, Optional
• Salt & Pepper to Taste
Directions:
First, you'll want to whip up your dressing by placing the 1 1/2 Brown Sugar Blend, 3 Tbsp. Vegetable Oil, 3 Tbsp. Rice Wine Vinegar, 1 Tbsp. Reduced Sodium Soy Sauce, 2 Tbsp. Creamy Peanut Butter, 1 Tbsp. Grated Ginger Root, 2 Garlic Cloves, 1 Tsp. Sesame Oil, 1/2 Tsp. Sriracha and Salt & Pepper to Taste into a blender, food processor or cup for an immersion blender. Blend down into a smooth and creamy dressing; set aside. I found Peter Pan Peanut Butter on the same aisle with jellies, jams, and tea at my local Walmart. In a medium bowl, mix together the 1 1/4 Lb. Lean Ground Turkey, 2/3 C. Shredded Carrots, 1/4 C. Whole Wheat Bread Crumbs, 2 Tbsp. Spicy Peanut Dressing, 2 Egg Whites, 1 Chopped Green Onion, and 1 Minced Garlic Clove. NOTE: I know I'm missing a patty here... one hit the deck. Oops! Divide the meat evenly and form it into 6 patties, giving each a Pinch of Turmeric Powder and a Pinch of Curry Powder over the top. Store both the dressing and the patties in airtight containers in the fridge if making ahead of time. When you're ready to grill, preheat the grill and cook the burgers until done; reaching an internal temperature of 180 degrees F. Top each cooked burger with 1/4 of the dry slaw and up to about 2 tbsp. of the Spicy Peanut Dressing. I added an extra drizzle of sriracha for more spice. Sprinkle on a few sesame seeds if desires and enjoy right away!
