Preparation steps

Combine all ingredients in a small bowl. Let sit for 30 minutes to release juices and incorporate flavors.

4.
Preheat the grill for direct grilling.
5.
In a large bowl, combine breadcrumbs, cream cheese, garlic, onion, lemon juice, cilantro, salt and pepper. Crumble turkey over mixture and mix well. Form into six patties.

Lightly coat the grill rack with oil. Grill burgers, covered, over medium heat for 4 to 6 minutes on each side or until an instant read thermometer reads 165°F, and juices run clear.

Grill buns, uncovered, for 30 to 60 seconds or until toasted. Arrange burgers on bun bottoms and top with salsa. Arrange lettuce, sliced tomatoes and onions on remaining bun tops. Serve.
