Steps:

• Chipotle Salsa:.
• Heat a thick cast iron skillet until very hot and add tomatillos, garlic, tomatoes and onion and cook over low heat. Frequently flip until blackeded in small areas and soft, about 10 minutes. Place on plate and set aside to cool.
• Put the tomatillos, garlic, tomatoes and onion in a blender or food processor and pulse until coarsely chopped, be careful not to liquify. Add chipotles and adobo sauce, cilantro, salt and sugar and pulse one or two times until JUST mixed.
• Burgers:.
• Add turkey, cilantro, scallion, garlic, ancho powder, salt, pepper, cumin, coriander and cinnamon to a mixing bowl and gently knead. Form 4 patties about 3/4 inch thick and put on a saran wraped plate.
• Light your grill and when it is heated brush grate with oil. Grill the burgers for 13 minutes, turning once, for medium. Briefly warm the english muffins and place a burger on the bottom slice; top with the avocado, pumpkin seeds and a helping of Chipotle Salsa. Top the burger and serve with the remaining salsa on the side.

Steps:

• Make the mayo: In a large bowl, whisk together the mayonnaise, adobo sauce, lime juice, and salt. Cover and refrigerate for up to 2 days.
• Make the burgers: In a large bowl, combine the ground turkey, creamed corn, breadcrumbs, egg, onion, cilantro, cumin, salt, and pepper. Using your hands, mix together the ingredients just until combined. Shape the mixture into four patties.
• Heat a large skillet over medium heat, then coat the skillet with cooking spray. Add the patties and cook for 5 minutes on one side, then flip them and cook until they are no longer pink and have reached an internal temperature of 165 degrees F, an additional 10 minutes. Top each burger with a slice of cheese.
• Spread a portion of the chipotle mayo on the bottom half of each bun. Top the mayo with a burger, then add lettuce, tomato, avocado, and the top half of the bun and serve.
