Ok, so I say "Aioli" because it's a fake-out really. Just store bought mayo jazzed up a bit for ease. Also, you can use any herbs you like instead of rosemary. Oregano, basil, or parsley would be great.

Turkey burgers can be boring - but not these turkey burgers. They are filled with a woodsy flavor from the fresh rosemary. We love the creaminess of the aioli on top. Using homemade mayonnaise means you can quickly whip up this aioli (it would be good on ground beef burgers too). It has a light rosemary flavor and a little sing from the red wine vinegar and Dijon mustard. Serve on a Kaiser roll with tomato, pickles, and onion and you have one tasty turkey burger.

How to Make Turkey Burgers With Rosemary "Aioli"
- For "Aioli": In a small bowl combine mayo, rosemary, garlic, vinegar, olive oil, Dijon, salt, and pepper. Cover and refrigerate while you prepare the rest of the meal.
- For burgers: In a medium bowl, combine turkey, onion, garlic, rosemary, Worcestershire, pepper, and salt.
- Form into 4 patties.
- Grill over medium-hot coals for about 5 minutes per side. For indoor cooking, preheat a griddle to medium heat and cook about 5 minutes per side.
- Place a slice of cheese on each patty 3-5 minutes before it's done.
- Butter the cut side of each bun.
- Grill until golden about 1-2 minutes, same goes for the indoor preparation.
- Allow burgers to rest a few minutes before serving. Assemble topping with lettuce, tomato, onions, pickles, and "Aioli." Enjoy!
