Paleo Pot-sticker Burgers

This 'paleo diet friendly' recipe is healthy, and amazing. The paleo diet emphasizes eating whole foods, nothing artificial or packaged; and no grains or sugars.  I've never met a diet I liked, and I've never done one; but if I had to, this would be the one. It truly combines health with taste. This is so, so tasty. They are burgers, that taste like pot sticker dumplings, and have no bread on them, but you top with coleslaw. Who would have thought? 

Pot Sticker Burgers

1 package 99% fat-free ground turkey breast (about 1.2lbs)

1 egg

3-4 Tablespoons Coconut Aminos** (I used Coconut Secret brand from Whole Foods) You can substitute soy sauce if you aren't worried about a paleo diet.

2 green onions, sliced

1 clove garlic finely minced

2 Tablespoon finely minced ginger 

1 1/2 cups coleslaw mix, roughly chopped 

Non-stick olive oil spray

Spicy Asian Slaw

4 Tablespoons Coconut Aminos

3 Tablespoons red wine vinegar

1 Tablespoon water

1/2 teaspoon sesame oil 

1/4 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (or more)

1/8 teaspoon garlic powder

1/8 teaspoon ginger powder

1 green onion, sliced

Remainder of coleslaw mix from 14 oz bag. (about 4-5 cups) 

Directions For the Slaw: (I started this first so it could marinate while I prepped the burgers)

1.) Mix first 8 ingredients in box then add coleslaw mix. 

2.) Toss until thoroughly coated. 

3.) Place bowl in fridge to marinate while you cook burgers.

Directions For the Burgers:

First, make your burgers with the ingredients above. 
1.) Preheat skillet to medium on your stove top, and spray with your non-stick spray. 

2.) Add turkey burgers and cook on medium for about 5-6 minutes.  

3.) As turkey has very little fat, I found it helpful to spray the pan again when you flip the burgers, cooking again for 5-6 minutes. 

4.) At this point, my burgers were still a bit pink in the center, so I covered the skillet and cooked for another 4 minutes.  
5.) Take off skillet, put on plate, and top with the slaw. 

Dig in!
