Ingredients
- 1 lb Ground turkey
- 0.25 cup Red onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 2 tbsp Fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 tsp Dried oregano
- 0.5 tsp Ground cumin
- 0.25 cup Feta cheese, crumbled
- 0.25 cup Breadcrumbs (optional for binding)
- 1 large Egg
- 0.5 tsp Salt
- 0.25 tsp Black pepper
- 4 Whole-wheat burger buns
- 0.5 cup Tzatziki sauce
- 4 Lettuce leaves
- 4 Tomato slices
- 8 Cucumber slices (optional)
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground turkey, red onion, garlic, parsley, oregano, cumin, feta cheese, breadcrumbs (if using), egg, salt, and black pepper.
Step 2
Mix the ingredients together gently but thoroughly until well combined.
Step 3
Divide the mixture into 4 equal portions and shape each portion into a burger patty about 3/4 inch thick.
Step 4
Preheat a grill, grill pan, or non-stick skillet over medium heat. Lightly oil the cooking surface to prevent sticking.
Step 5
Cook the turkey patties for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until fully cooked through with an internal temperature of 165°F (74°C). Avoid overcooking to retain moisture.
Step 6
While the patties are cooking, lightly toast the whole-wheat burger buns on the grill or in a toaster, if desired.
Step 7
Assemble the burgers by placing a lettuce leaf on the bottom half of each bun, followed by a turkey patty, a dollop of tzatziki sauce, a slice of tomato, and cucumber slices (if using). Top with the other half of the bun.
Step 8
Serve immediately and enjoy your Greek-inspired turkey burgers!
