8 teaspoons reduced-fat mayonnaise, divided

Directions
To prepare pickled onions: Whisk vinegar, brown sugar, salt and allspice
in a medium glass bowl. Microwave on High until the mixture boils, 2 to 3 minutes. (Alternatively,
bring the mixture to a boil in a small saucepan on the stove.) Add onions and toss to coat.

To prepare burgers: Preheat grill to high. Place turkey in a medium bowl and gently mix in cilantro,
cumin, ground chipotle, salt and allspice until distributed throughout the meat. Form the mixture
into 4 patties. Brush with oil.

Grill the burgers until cooked through and no longer pink in the center, 3 to 4 minutes per side.
Meanwhile, toast buns on the grill, if desired.

Drain the onions, discarding the marinade. Spread 2 teaspoons mayonnaise on each bun; top with a
burger and pickled onions.
