Greek Burger

Greek Burger

Ingredients

• 4 Turano Brioche Rolls
• 1/2 pound of ground beef and 1/2 pound of ground lamb
• 2 ounces feta crumbled
• 1 teaspoon dried oregano
• 2 teaspoons diced red onion
• 2 cloves garlic grated and divided
• ½ teaspoon black pepper
• 6 ounce fat-free plain Greek yogurt
• 1 cucumber
• 2 Tablespoons fresh dill
• Salt to taste
• Sliced red onion and lettuce for serving


Directions

① To make the burgers: combine the ground beef and lamb, feta, oregano, red onion, half of the grated garlic, and black pepper in a large mixing bowl. Use your hands to gently combine the ingredients.
② Form the beef mixture into four patties that are the same diameter as your Turano Brioche Rolls — the patties should be slightly thicker at the edges with a slight indentation in the middle. Let the burgers rest while you prepare the tzatziki.
③ To prepare the tzatziki: Peel your cucumber and grate it using the coarse side of a box grater (alternately, you can shred it using a vegetable peeler). In a small dish, combine the yogurt, cucumber, remaining garlic, and dill. Season to taste with salt. Cover and refrigerate until ready to serve.
④ Grill the burgers over a medium flame for approximately 5 minutes on each side (you can also cook them on the stovetop in a pan set over medium heat) or until they are cooked to your desired level of doneness.
Serve with Turano Brioche Rolls, lettuce, sliced red onion, and tzatziki.
