Turkey Ramen Burgers

Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Draw four 4-in circles, 2 inches apart, on each paper.

Reserve one ramen seasoning packet for burgers. Cook noodles according to package directions; omit seasoning. Rinse noodles; drain thoroughly. Toss noddles with beaten egg in a bowl. Divide noodle mixture into eight 1/2-cup portions. Shape each portion into a patty and lightly press onto a circle on parchment. Cover with plastic wrap, refrigerate 1 hour. 

Combine turkey, reserved ramen seasoning, green onions and carrot in a medium bowl. Form mixture into four patties. Heat 1 tablespoon oil over medium heat in a large skillet. Add patties and cook, covered, for 14 minutes, or until internal temperature registers 165 degrees. During the last minute, top each patty with a cheese slice. When cheese is melted, transfer patties to a plate; keep warm. Wipe out skillet.

Add 1/4 cup oil to skillet; heat over medium-high heat. Cook four noodle patties in hot oil for 8 minutes or until browned and crisp, turning once. Transfer to paper-towel-lined plate. Repeat with remaining 1/4 cup oil and four noodle patties. Line four ramen patties with lettuce; top with tomato slices, burgers and, if desired, Pickled Onions. Add remaining ramen patties.
