astray recipes: Anytime thanksgiving burgers

Categories: None
Yield: 5 -6

Measure	Ingredient
3 tablespoons	Butter or margarine; divided
¼ cup	Chopped celery
¼ cup	Chopped onion
¾ cup	Dry seasoned stuffing mix
⅓ cup	Boiling chicken broth or water
¼ teaspoon	Salt
¼ teaspoon	Black pepper
¼ teaspoon	Poultry seasoning or dried sage
1 pounds	Ground chicken or turkey; (up to 1-1/4)
¼ cup	Chopped fresh parsley
	Cranberry sauce or cranberry relish; optional

In a large skillet, melt 2 tablespoons butter over medium heat. Add the celery and onions and sauté until softened, about 5 minutes. Remove the skillet from the heat and add the stuffing mix, broth, salt, pepper, and poultry seasoning; mix well. Let the mixture cool completely, then transfer to a large bowl. Mix in the chicken and parsley. Form into 5 or 6 equal-sized patties. Add the remaining butter to the skillet and melt over medium-high heat. Add the patties and brown for 1 minute per side. Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook for 4 to 5 more minutes per side, until the patties are cooked through and spring back when touched.

NOTE: Top each burger with a teaspoon of cranberry sauce or cranberry relish for that complete Thanksgiving taste...anytime! >From Mr. Food
