I used to hate turkey burgers because I thought they were so bland and boring. So I tried spicing things up and adding in lots of delicious Mediterranean flavors to these patties and they were honestly so delicious. Serve these with a big spoonful of tzatziki sauce alongside some roasted sweet potato “fries” and a side salad and you have your perfect, easy summer meal.
Ingredients:
1 lb ground turkey
⅓ cup crumbled feta cheese
⅓ cup finely chopped red onion
1 teaspoon dried oregano
½ tsp salt
¼ tsp pepper
For the tzatziki sauce:
1 cup plain Greek yogurt (I prefer 2%)
1 medium cucumber, grated
2 tbsp lemon juice
1 tbsp olive oil
1 tbsp fresh dill, minced
1 clove garlic, minced
¼ tsp salt
Pinch of black pepper
Directions:
Add all turkey burger ingredients to a mixing bowl and combine with your hands
Shape into four patties
Cook on a grill or stovetop over medium heat for 4-5 minutes per side (or until internal temperature is 165°F)
To make the tzatziki sauce, place the grated cucumber on a paper towel and squeeze out the excess water. Mix it with the Greek yogurt, lemon juice, dill, garlic, salt, and pepper.
