Grilled Turkey Sliders with Tomato Jam

1. 1

   Preheat the grill to medium-high heat.

2. 2

   Mix the ground turkey, ricotta, mustard, shallot, basil, salt, and pepper together in a large bowl.

3. 3

   Form into 12 small 1/2-inch thick patties.

4. 4

   Brush the grill grates with olive oil with a clean tea towel to keep the turkey from sticking.

5. 5

   Grill the patties for 4 minutes, and then flip and continue to cook the other side for another 3 minutes.

6. 6

   Place the rolls on the warmer rack to toast during the last 3 minutes of grilling.

7. 7

   To assemble burgers, place a patty between the buns and top with lettuce and Tomato Jam.

8. 8

   Cook's Note: Adding the ricotta cheese to the turkey burger mixture helps to keep it moist and flavorful without adding a lot of fat.

9. 9

   Add all the ingredients to a medium saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat.

10. 10

    Reduce the heat and simmer, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes have dissolved and what remains is a thick jam-like consistency, about 1 hour.

11. 11

    Cool before serving.

12. 12

    The jam can be stored in an airtight mason jar for up to 2 weeks in your refrigerator.

    Cook's Note: This is a great recipe to double up on when tomatoes are at their ripest and best during the summer months.
