Cómo preparar Mediterranean Lamb Burgers
- Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C).
- Cut each pita bread in half crosswise to form pockets. Wrap pitas in foil and warm in the oven for 10-12 minutes while preparing the burgers.
- Prepare the sauce: In a small bowl, combine 1 cup plain Greek yogurt, 1/2 cup diced cucumber, and 2 tablespoons lemon juice. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- In a large bowl, gently combine 1 lb ground lamb, 1/2 cup finely chopped red onion, 1/4 cup chopped fresh mint, 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley, 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1 teaspoon ground cumin, 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
- Shape the lamb mixture into 8 (1/2-inch thick) oval patties.
- Grill or broil the patties for 4-5 minutes per side, or until cooked to your desired level of doneness (leaving them slightly pink in the center is recommended).
- Fill each pita half with a lamb burger, and let your diners add their favorite toppings: sliced pickles, tomatoes, red onion, and a generous dollop of the cucumber-yogurt sauce.
