Ingredients
- 1 bag McCain Smiles
- 1.5 lbs ground turkey
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce
- 2 tablespoons ketchup
- ½ teaspoon Trader Joe’s Green Goddess seasoning (optional)
- 8 slices sharp white cheddar or American cheese
Garlic Aioli:
- ¾ cup mayonnaise
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 ½ tablespoons lemon juice
- ¾ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon black pepper
How to make it
- Preheat oven to 375°F. Line a 10x13 baking dish with parchment paper.
- Make turkey mixture: In a large bowl, combine ground turkey, salt, pepper, garlic powder,
Worcestershire sauce, ketchup, and seasoning (if using). Mix until evenly combined. - Shape and bake: Press turkey mixture into the prepared pan in an even rectangle. Bake 25–34
minutes, or until juices run clear and the meat reaches 160°F. - Cook Smiles: While turkey is baking, prepare McCain Smiles according to package directions.
- Make aioli: In a small bowl, stir together mayonnaise, garlic, lemon juice, salt, and pepper.
Refrigerate until ready to use. - Cut patties: Once turkey is fully cooked, remove from oven and carefully lift out the parchment. Drain
excess juices. Let rest briefly, then cut into 2-inch rounds with a cookie cutter or into squares. - Assemble sliders: Arrange 14 McCain Smiles on a baking sheet as the bottom 'buns.' Top each with
a turkey patty, slice of cheese, pickle (optional), and a dollop of garlic aioli. Press down another McCain
Smile as the top bun and enjoy!
