Ingredienser

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 small white onion, diced

1 red bell pepper or green bell pepper, finely diced

3 cloves garlic, minced

1 pound 94% lean ground turkey or chicken

1 teaspoon kosher salt

Freshly ground black pepper

½ cup ketchup (I use Trader Joe’s Organic Ketchup)

¼ cup your favorite BBQ sauce (I used Stubb’s Spicy BBQ sauce, but a sweet one is great too!)

1 ½ teaspoons Worcestershire sauce

1 ½ teaspoons red wine vinegar

1 teaspoon yellow mustard

½ cup filtered water

Optional: ⅛ teaspoon cayenne pepper, if you like spice

For serving

4 hamburger buns of choice

2-4 ounces shredded pepper jack cheese (about ½-1 cup)

Optional: Jalapeño slices

Vejledning

In a large skillet, add olive oil and place over medium heat. Add in the garlic, white onion, and bell pepper; saute for 5 minutes or until onion is translucent. Move mixture to the sides of the pan.

Add ground turkey to the skillet and season with salt and pepper. Break up the meat and cook until no longer pink, 5 to 7 minutes.

Once turkey is cooked, add the onion and bell pepper mixture back in. Then add in ketchup, BBQ sauce, Worcestershire sauce, vinegar, mustard, and water. If you like a little heat, add in cayenne pepper.

Stir well to combine and bring to a simmer, then reduce heat to low and cook for 10 minutes longer until sauce thickens. If sauce looks too thick, add a tablespoon of water.

Next add cheese on top of meat mixture, cover with a lid, and let the cheese melt for 2 minutes (or until melted). Transfer meat onto hamburger buns and top with jalapeño slices. Enjoy!
