Ingredients
- 2 lb ground turkey (93/7)
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tsp salt
- ½ tsp black pepper
- ½ tsp garlic powder
- ¼ tsp onion powder
- ½ cup mayonnaise
- 3–4 tbsp cranberry sauce
- 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- 1–2 tsp pineapple juice
- Pinch salt
- Pinch pepper
- 1 pack King’s Hawaiian 9-count slider buns
- 9 pieces Swiss cheese
- ½ cup crispy fried onions
- Gravy for dipping (optional)
- ½ stick butter, melted
- 1 tsp chopped fresh chives
Instructions
- In a bowl, mix ground turkey with Worcestershire sauce, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder until just combined.
- Divide into 9 portions and shape into patties slightly larger than the buns. Freeze on parchment paper for 30 minutes.
- In a small bowl, mix together mayonnaise, cranberry sauce, Dijon mustard, pineapple juice, salt, and pepper. Refrigerate to thicken.
- Toast slider buns cut-side down on a griddle over medium heat. Set aside.
- Increase heat to medium-high and lightly oil the griddle. Cook frozen patties 3–4 minutes per side until cooked through (165°F). Top with Swiss cheese to melt.
- Assemble the sliders: spread cranberry mayo on bottom buns, add a turkey patty, sprinkle crispy fried onions, then spread more cranberry mayo on top buns. Close the sliders.
- Brush the tops with melted chive butter and serve warm with gravy for dipping if desired.
Notes
- Use orange juice if pineapple juice isn’t available.
- Chilling the patties helps them hold shape and cook evenly.
- To keep warm for a party, place in a 200°F oven covered for up to 30 minutes.
- Provolone, Havarti, or white cheddar can replace Swiss cheese.
- Store leftovers in the fridge and reheat in the oven for best results.
