Are you tired of the same old burgers? Or perhaps your doctor has told you to cut back on red meat or fast food burgers. These Pork Burgers with Peppers and Mushrooms on flat breads are a great alternative. Use lean pork, known as "the other white meat" when you make these burgers to keep them healthy. If using the flat bread is just too much change for you, be sure you use whole-grain buns instead of regular ones!
PORK BURGERS WITH PEPPERS AND MUSHROOMS
2 small red and/or green bell peppers
1 banana or jalapeno pepper, seeded and chopped
1 lb ground pork
1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
2 tsp fresh ground pepper
8-oz fresh sliced mushrooms
4 flat breads
1/2 cup mayonnaise
Slice half the peppers into rings and set aside. Chop the remaining peppers.
In a bowl, combine the chopped peppers, pork, 2 teaspoons of the Worcestershire sauce, and 2 teaspoons fresh ground pepper. Shape mixture into 4 equal patties.
In a large hot skillet that has been sprayed with nonstick cooking spray, cook the patties over medium high heat for about 12 minutes, turning once. (Internal temperature should reach 160 degrees.) Transfer to a plate and cover.
In the same skillet patties were cooked in, cook the pepper rings and mushrooms for 3 minutes. Lightly sprinkle with salt, if desired.
Wrap breads in paper towels and cook in the microwave on high for about 30 seconds. For the sauce, combine the mayonnaise, the remaining Worcestershire sauce, and some black pepper, if desired. Place the burgers on the breads top with the pepper mushroom mixture. Pass the sauce for individuals to add the amount they prefer.
Enjoy!
