Turkey Cheeseburgers

You can use ground chicken for this,
but I like to use lean ground turkey.
Spicy, cheesy and very good tasting,
this is one of my favorite burgers.

Ingredients:
1 pound freshly ground turkey
3 tablespoons finely chopped onion
2 tablespoons diced jalapeno chiles
1/2 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon ground cumin
3 tablespoons bread crumbs
chicken broth to moisten
1 cup crushed Cheetos snack chips
slices of iceberg lettuce
slices of Velveeta cheese

Directions:
In a mixing bowl combine groung turkey,
onion, chiles, chili powder, cumin and bread crumbs.
Add enough chicken broth to moisten.
Divide into patties and press into ground Cheetos,
making sure that they adhere to form a crust.
Spray a frying pan with nonstick cooking spray
and heat over medium high heat until lightly smoking.
Add patties and reduce heat to medium-low.
Fry until golden-brown on one side.
Turn and continue to fry slowly until turkey
is cooked inside, about 20 minutes.
Serve on warm buns with a slice of
iceberg lettuce and Velveeta cheese.
