Cook them while they are still frozen and it will help seal in the juices and give you an even more tender turkey burger when finished.

INTERNATIONAL INSPIRATION
In Greece, the eggplant takes center stage in many of thier dishes. Eggplants in the United States typically are a deep purple colored skin, while in Greece they are often white or light purple in color. MEDITERRANEAN TURKEY AND EGGPLANT STIR-FRY is the perfect way to highlight eggplant and ground turkey in a classic Greek dish.
Although the word “scaloppine” is French in origin, the dish is said to have first appeared in Italy around 1946. It is typically made with small, thin slices of meat, lightly coated in flour, sautéed in butter and spices. The accompanying sauce can be made from tomato, wine, capers, or lemon.
The versatility of turkey makes it great for highlighting flavors in dishes from all over the world. Originating from Argentina, chimichurri is an uncooked sauce, perfect for grilled meat, made of parsley (or cilantro), garlic, olive oil, oregano, and red wine vinegar. Grilled turkey tenderloins are the perfect cut to to highlight this bright, vibrant sauce.
There is a type of sandwich in Vietnam, referred to as Bánh mì. Bánh mì is the Vietnamese word for bread and refers to any sandwich made with a baguette split lengthwise and filled with Vietnamese ingredients (such as pork sausage, cilantro, pickled carrots or daikon) and French condiments (such as pâté, along with chili peppers or mayonnaise). Our featured TURKEY BANH MI SANDWICH highlights ground turkey and thinly sliced turkey tenderloins with pickled daikon and carrot, for a wonderfully complex flavor that perfectly represents classic Vietnamese cuisine.
To finish this brief trip around the world, we are traveling to the island of Java, Indonesia, to experience the cuisine of the Javanese people. The Javanese people are the largest ethnic group in Indonesia, whose cuisine tends to be sweeter and less spicy. Rice is a major component of their cuisine, simple steamed rice is served at every meal. JAVANESE TURKEY SATAY highlights boneless turkey things with a sweet and savory marinade and peanut dipping sauce.
