Instructions

  1. Adjust rack to top position and preheat oven to 450°F. Wash and dry produce. Cut broccoli into bite-size pieces if necessary. Peel and mince or grate ginger until you have 1 tablespoon (2 tablespoons for 4 servings). Trim and thinly slice scallions, separating whites from greens; mince whites.
  2. Toss broccoli on a baking sheet with a drizzle of oil, salt and pepper. Roast on top rack until browned and tender, 12-15 minutes.
  3. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine mayonnaise with half the chili sauce (you’ll use the rest later). Add water 1 teaspoon at a time until sauce reaches a drizzling consistency.
  4. In a large bowl, combine turkey, ginger, scallion whites, ponzu, stock concentrate, panko, salt (we used ½ teaspoon; 1 teaspoon for 4 servings) and pepper. Mix gently until thoroughly combined. Form into six 1½-inch balls (12 balls for 4). Tip: Rub hands with a little oil first to prevent sticking. Heat a drizzle of oil in a large pan over medium-high heat. Add turkey mixture; gently press down with a spatula to make ½-inch-thick patties. (For 4, cook in batches if necessary.) Cook patties until browned and cooked through, 2-3 minutes per side.
  5. In a second large bowl, toss together roasted broccoli, cabbage, sesame dressing, half the scallion greens and remaining chili sauce. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.
  6. Divide patties and salad between plates. Drizzle patties with sweet chili mayo and garnish with remaining scallion greens. Serve.

Recipe Tips

Rub your hands with a little oil before shaping the patties to prevent sticking.

If the patties are browning too quickly, reduce heat to medium.

For extra crunch, add some toasted sesame seeds to the salad.
