Cookware

aluminum foil · chef's knife · colander · cutting board · garlic press (optional) · grater (optional) · grill pan, outdoor grill, or skillet · measuring cups · measuring spoons · mixing bowls · small saucepan · toaster (optional) · tongs · whisk or fork

Directions

  1. Wash and dry all fresh produce, then get your grill or skillet hot to medium-high.
  2. Make the teriyaki base by mincing the garlic and ginger, then whisking them into broth, soy sauce, vinegar, brown sugar, and chili-garlic sauce; bring to a boil.
  3. Prepare a smooth slurry by whisking cornstarch with a little water, then whisk it in as the sauce boils until slightly thickened. Set the sauce aside.
  4. Sauté slice onions on the hot grill pan or grill until tender and lightly charred, about 3–4 minutes per side; transfer to a plate and loosely cover.
  5. In a bowl, combine ground turkey, bread crumbs, salt, pepper, and half of the teriyaki sauce; mix until just combined and form two patties.
  6. Return the pan to medium-high heat, add a little oil, and cook the patties about 5 minutes per side until cooked through; set on the plate with the onions and cover.
  7. In a clean bowl, whisk together more oil, soy sauce, vinegar, brown sugar, and chili-garlic sauce to make a dressing; add diced pineapple, then shred bok choy and mix with broccoli slaw.
  8. Toast buns if desired, then assemble by placing a patty on each bottom bun, brushing with remaining sauce, adding onions, and topping with slaw before closing with the top bun and serving.

Two tips

  • Make the dressing and slaw ahead and refrigerate for up to a day to speed assembly.
  • If you want less heat, reduce or omit the chili-garlic sauce from the teriyaki and dressing.
