Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 tablespoon unflavored gelatin (powder)
  • 1/2 cup quinoa
  • 1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon oil
  • 1 lb ground turkey
  • 1 tablespoon low sodium soy sauce
  • 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
  • 1 teaspoon adobo criollo
  • 1 tablespoon crushed garlic
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground pepper

  • Herb mayonnaise, to taste (if desired)

Directions

  • 1
    In medium bowl, combine 1/4 cup of the chicken broth and the gelatin with a wire whisk until it's well incorporated.

    Place the quinoa and the rest of the chicken broth in a medium pot over medium heat and cook for 10 to 15 minutes, stirring occasionally or until it is soft and the broth has evaporated. Once ready, add the olive oil and carefully mixing it with a fork. Set aside.

  • 6
    Cook for 12 to 15 minutes; turn them over so they cook on both sides.
  • 7
    Remove the patties from the grill. Place spinach leaves in each bun and top with a patty and herb mayonnaise to taste.
