Ingredients
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 2 teaspoons sriracha chili sauce
  • 1/4 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon pepper
  • 1/4 cup dry bread crumbs
  • 1 tablespoon mayonnaise
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 pound ground turkey
  • 1 tablespoon canola oil
  • 4 slices cheddar cheese
  • 1 tablespoon butter
  • 4 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup cubed medium ripe avocado, peeled
  • 1/2 teaspoon lemon juice
  • 4 english muffins, split and toasted
  • 8 cooked maple bacon strips
Directions
  1. In a small bowl, combine the first 5 ingredients.
  2. In a large bowl, combine bread crumbs, mayonnaise, salt, onion powder, garlic powder and pepper. Add turkey; mix lightly but thoroughly. Shape into four 3-in.-thick patties.
  3. In a large nonstick skillet, heat oil over medium heat. Add burgers; cook until a thermometer reads 160°, 2-3 minutes on each side. Top each burger with 1 slice cheese; cover and cook until cheese is melted, 1-2 minutes longer. Remove and keep warm. Wipe pan clean.
  4. Heat butter in the same skillet over medium-high heat. Break eggs, 1 at a time, into pan; reduce heat to low. Cook until whites are set and yolks begin to thicken, turning once if desired.
  5. In a small bowl, mash avocado with lemon juice; spread over muffin bottoms. Place burger, egg and bacon on each. Spread Sriracha mayonnaise over inside of tops. Replace bun tops.
