Ingredients
- 1.5 lb Ground turkey
- 1 Egg
- 2 Sweet potatoes
- 1 tsp Smoked paprika
- 4 leaves Lettuce
- 1 Tomato
- 1 Avocado
Steps
- Heat the oven to 425°F for the fries.
- Cut the sweet potatoes into even 1/4-inch sticks — uniform fries cook uniformly.
- Toss with oil, paprika, and salt; spread in a single layer with space between pieces.
- Roast 25 minutes, flipping once, until crisp at the edges.
- Meanwhile, mix the turkey, egg, and a teaspoon of salt gently; form 4 patties slightly wider than your palm.
- Press a dimple into the center of each patty so it cooks flat instead of puffing.
- Sear or grill 5 minutes per side, until the center reads 165°F.
- Serve bunless on lettuce with tomato and avocado, fries alongside.
