The Roasted RootIngredients
- 1/2 yellow onion, chopped
- 1 teaspoon grapeseed oil
- 1 teaspoon olive oil(optional)
- 5 baby bella mushrooms, chopped
- 1/8 cup fresh basil, finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 1 pound ground elk, bison, or turkey meat
- 4 jalapenos
- Cherry BBQ Sauce
- Avocado slices
- Tomato slices
- Red leaf lettuce
Instructions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 375°F. Place whole jalapeños in a casserole dish or baking sheet and roast until the skin flakes away from the flesh and the flesh is soft. Remove from oven and allow to cool. Once cool enough to handle, peel and discard the skin. Cut jalapeños lengthwise, remove the stem and seeds, and coarsely chop. Set aside.
Step 2
In a medium skillet, heat the grapeseed or olive oil. Sauté chopped onion on medium-high heat until translucent. Add the chopped mushrooms and sauté until both the onion and mushrooms are dark brown and soft. Remove from heat and set aside.
Step 3
Preheat the grill to medium-high heat. In a mixing bowl, combine the ground meat, salt, garlic powder, paprika, and basil. Once the sautéed onion and mushroom mixture is cool, add it to the mixing bowl and mix everything together thoroughly using your hands. Form the mixture into 5 patties. Once the grill is hot, place the patties on and grill until brown and charred on the first side. Flip and grill an additional 3 to 5 minutes, until the meat is brown and has nice grill marks. Cook elk or bison to desired doneness, and turkey meat all the way through, being careful not to overcook.
