Description

I am a huge fan of the banzai burger at Red Robin—a giant, juicy burger, marinated in teriyaki sauce and served with grilled pineapples, lettuce, tomato, cheddar cheese, and mayo. Its absolutely delicious!

I knew I’d have to recreate this somehow, and because I try to eat healthy, I would need to take it down a notch.

Ingredients

  • 1-½ pound Ground Turkey
  • 1 teaspoon Ground Ginger
  • 1 teaspoon All Spice
  • 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
  • 1 Tablespoon Sea Salt
  • 1 Tablespoon Ground Black Pepper
  • 1 Tablespoon Brown Sugar
  • 2 cloves Garlic, Minced
  • ⅓ cups Teriyaki Sauce
  • ½  Small Onion
  • 2 Tablespoons Fresh Basil, Chopped
  • 4  Large Fresh Pineapple Slices, Or 8 Slices From The Can
  • 1 Tablespoon Honey
  • 4  Whole Wheat Buns
  • 3 cups Fresh Baby Arugula

Preparation

In a large bowl, mix ground turkey with seasonings, brown sugar, garlic, and teriyaki sauce. Grate the onion right into the bowl to collect all its juices. Add the basil, mix well, and form into 4 large patties.

Throw them on your preheated grill and cook until there is no pink left, about 15 to 20 minutes.

While your burgers are cooking, grill your pineapple slices on the grill or on a grill pan. Just make sure to spray it with non-stick spray and to only flip them once so you get those perfect grill marks. I cooked mine for about 5 to 7 minutes on each side. Remove the pineapples and let them rest on a plate. Immediately drizzle them with honey and toast up your burger buns on the grill.

Assemble burgers on toasted whole wheat buns and top with pineapple slice or slices and baby arugula. Enjoy!
