Turkey Burger + Pinot Noir Pairing

“Food isn't like anything else. It's something precious. It's not a commodity.” - Alice Waters

It has been years since I’ve had red meat, and I’ve been trying out several turkey burger recipes, that would satisfy my occasional burger cravings. When seasoned and dressed properly, turkey burgers can be juicy, moist, and super flavorful. I love pairing my turkey burgers with a nice glass of red wine, Pinot Noir to be exact.

This pairing provides a lovely balance, and one I enjoy so much, read more about it below.

Turkey Burger

This turkey burger is packed full of flavor. The ground turkey is seasoned and marinated with black pepper, onion and garlic powder, Trader Joe’s Everyday Seasoning spice blend, red pepper flakes, Worcestershire sauce, and whole grain mustard. It is topped with Swiss cheese, homemade smoked bacon, pickled red onion and jalapeños. Then, garnished with spinach and avocado on a buttered brioche bun.

The balance and elements of this turkey burger are wonderful blend of:

• Spice

• Heat

• Smoke

• Salt

I truly enjoy pairing my burger with a delicate and soft Pinot Noir - learn more about my favorite pairing below.

Saude Creek Vineyard Pinot Noir 2018

Saude Creek Vineyard is a winery I’ve featured on this blog a few times (read the post here). It is a local Virginia Winery that has a stunning view, and some lovely wines. This year Saude Creek debuted their brand new Pinot Noir, and I was super excited to get my hands on it. Their 2018 Pinot Noir is quite delicious - it is soft, and delicate - a wonderful wine to sip by itself, or pair with a turkey burger.

Here are the tasting notes on this beautiful wine:

• Light-bodied

• Delicate and smooth finish

• Low tannins

• Red fruit: cherry, raspberry, and pomegranate

Pinot Noir is a lovely choice, as it is a very versatile wine, and pairs well with so many things. Also, this varietal does not overpower the burger at all. It’s acidity pairs well with Swiss cheese, and the various salty notes on the sandwich. Pinots compliment every element on this sandwich, from the smoked bacon, to the pickled veggies - each bite and sip are the perfect pair.

Recipe: Garlic Parmesan Mushroom Fries

“Go vegetable heavy. Reverse the psychology of your plate by making meat the side dish and vegetables the main course.” - Bobby Flay

One of the things I’ve really been incorporating in my meals, is the use of more vegetables, and cutting out the carbs. If you know me on a personal level, then you know french fries are one of my favorite things. But, here lately I’ve been on a huge mushroom kick, and recently tested out a new side dish, that helps me curb my french fry craving - mushroom fries.

This super delicious snack, and it’s low carb may I add, is really simple and easy to make. You can deep fry, bake, or air fry this snack, and it truly does not disappoint. The combination of herbs and freshly grated parmesan cheese, is truly a gift.

Check out the recipe below!

What You’ll Need:

• 2 portobello mushroom caps

• 1 cup herb panko breadcrumbs

• 1 cup all purpose flour

• 1 tsp fresh cracked black pepper

• 1 tsp garlic powder

• 1 tsp rosemary

• 1 tsp thyme

• 1 egg

• 1 tbsp water

• canola oil

• a pinch of sea salt

• grated parmesan cheese, for garnish

• parsley, for garnish

---

Instructions:

STEP 1: Preheat your deep fryer to 350 degrees.

STEP 2: Rinse off mushroom caps. Cut the stems, trim the edges, and remove the gills from the underside of the vegetable.

STEP 3: Slice mushrooms into strips to your desired width, 1/4 inch is a good rule of thumb.

STEP 4: Combine flour and seasonings: black pepper, garlic powder, rosemary, and thyme into a bowl.

STEP 5: In a separate bowl, whisk the egg and water, creating a frothy mixture.

STEP 6: Finally, in a third bowl, add panko breadcrumbs.

STEP 7: Take each mushroom slice and dredge it in seasoned flour, then egg and water mixture, and finally breadcrumbs. Continue this until each mushroom slice is evenly coated.

Pro Tip: The egg and water mixture act as the ‘glue or binder’ for the panko breadcrumbs to stick to the mushroom slice.

STEP 8: Once the cooking vessel is hot, gradually add in the breaded mushroom slices, cooking for 3-5 minutes, or until golden brown.

Pro Tip: You can cook these mushroom fries in an air fryer or oven, bake them at 425 degrees for 10-15 minutes, or until golden brown.

STEP 9: Remove mushroom fries from the oil, and put them onto a stack of paper towels, allowing them to drain any excess oil.

STEP 10: Garnish with a touch of sea salt, parsley, and freshly grated parmesan cheese. Serve and enjoy!

If you are interested in a homemade spicy garlic sauce to accompany the mushroom fries, see the super easy recipe below!
