Directions
Begin by heating the bacon fat in a medium skillet on medium heat until it becomes hot.
Next, add the garlic and onions and sauté them for around 4 to 5 minutes or until the onions become tender.
Once sautéed, allow the vegetables to cool and then purée them.
In a large bowl, mix together the jalapeno peppers, milk, bread crumbs, salt, and the puréed onions until they are well combined.
In another mixing bowl, whisk together the egg, egg white, and heavy cream until fully combined.
After whisking, add the ground turkey and oil and mix them thoroughly with your hands.
Finally, add the cilantro and breadcrumb mixture to the bowl and mix all the ingredients well with your hands until they are properly blended.
Shape the meat mixture into eight patties that are the size of the bread slices.
Preheat the oven to 350℉ (180℃).
Transfer the turkey patties onto a baking pan and bake for 10 minutes on each side or until they are firm and cooked through.
On each slice of the rye bread, place a slice of cheese and a slice of tomato.
Place the bread slices under a preheated broiler until the cheese has melted and bubbly.
Place one baked sausage patty on top of each grilled bread piece.
Top it with the Southwestern Slaw.
Serve the Black Bean Relish on the side.
