Greek Feta Pan Seared Turkey Burgers
Ingredients
Patties
2 lbs ground turkey or chicken
1/2 cup (about 4oz) feta cheese, drained and crumbled
¼ cup shallot, red or white onion, finely chopped
4 cloves garlic, finely minced or grated
¼ cup fresh parsley, finely chopped
2 tsp dried oregano (or any Greek herb blend)
½ tsp ground cumin
Zest of 1 lemon
2 tbsp Smak Dab White Wine Herb or Curry Dijon Mustard
1 pinch crushed red pepper flakes
1 egg, beaten
1/3 cup breadcrumbs
1 tsp Kosher salt
½ tsp ground black pepper
Assembly
Smak Dab Mustard (any flavour we will do!)
Tzatziki or hummus
Toasted hamburger buns or pita pockets
Lettuce
Tomato
Red Onion
Directions
Add the meat, feta cheese, shallot, garlic, parsley, spices, zest, mustard, egg, breadcrumbs, salt and pepper to a large mixing bowl. Use your hands to mix everything until well combined.
Form meat into patties (about 1/3 cup each) and put a small indent in the middle with your finger.
Heat a non-stick frying pan on medium-high heat with about 2 tsp olive oil. Sear the patties 5-6 minutes per side, or until the patties are cooked through but still moist. For the BBQ, lightly grease the grates and grill over medium-high for 5-6 minutes per side, or until cooked through.
Build your burger with a layer of mustard on the bottom half of the bun, and top with the turkey patty, lettuce, tomato, red onion and finish with tzatziki or hummus.
