Coat a large griddle, outdoor grill rack or stovetop grill pan with cooking spray; preheat to medium-high.
In a medium bowl, combine slaw mix, cucumber, lime juice and salt; toss to coat and set aside.
In a large bowl, combine turkey, cilantro, soy sauce, ginger and garlic; divide mixture into four balls and then gently press each one into a 4-inch patty.
In a small bowl, combine mayonnaise and chili sauce.
Grill or broil patties until internal temperature of burgers reaches 165°F, about 4 to 5 minutes per side.
Spread half of each English muffin with 1 1/4 teaspoon chili-mayonnaise; top with a burger, a scant 1/3 cup slaw mixture and a muffin top. Yields 1 burger per serving.
