Directions
To prepare pickled onions:
Whisk vinegar, brown sugar, salt and allspice in a medium glass bowl.
Cover and microwave on High until the mixture boils, 2 to 3 minutes. (Alternatively, bring the mixture to a boil in a small saucepan on the stove.)
Add onion and toss to coat.
To prepare burgers: Preheat grill to high.
Place turkey in a medium bowl and gently mix in cilantro, cumin, ground chipotle, salt and allspice until distributed throughout the meat.
Form the mixture into 4 patties.
Brush with oil.
Grill the burgers until cooked through and no longer pink in the center, 3 to 4 minutes per side.
Toast buns on the grill, if desired.
Drain the onion, discarding the marinade.
Spread 2 teaspoons mayonnaise on each bun; top with a burger and pickled onions.
