How to Make Greek Feta Burger
- Prepare the Yogurt Sauce: In a medium bowl, combine 1 cup plain Greek yogurt, 1/2 cup finely chopped cucumber, 2 minced cloves of garlic, and 1 tablespoon of lemon juice. Mix well and set aside.
- Prepare the Burger Patties: In a large bowl, gently combine 1 pound ground beef, 1 medium zucchini (finely grated), 1/2 cup crumbled feta cheese, 1/4 cup finely chopped red onion, 1 teaspoon dried marjoram, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper. Avoid overmixing.
- Form the Patties: Shape the beef mixture into four 3/4-inch-thick patties.
- Preheat your grill pan or grill to medium-high heat. Lightly coat the grill surface with cooking spray or oil.
- Grill the Patties: Grill the patties for approximately 5 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 160°F (71°C). Flip once during cooking.
- Assemble the Burgers: Divide the roasted red pepper slices evenly among the bottom halves of the burger rolls.
- Top each burger roll with a grilled patty, 1/4 of the yogurt sauce, lettuce, and additional cucumber slices, if desired.
- Add the top half of the roll to complete your delicious Greek Feta Burger!
