Lamb Burgers
- 2 tbsp Président® Fat-Free Crumbled Feta Cheese
- 1 lb ground lamb
- 2 tsp fresh dill chopped
- 1 tsp fresh mint chopped
- 1 tsp fresh oregano chopped
- 2 cloves garlic minced
Lamb Burgers
- In a medium bowl, combine all ingredients gently, being careful to leave large chunks of Président® Feta. Form mixture into two patties.
- Preheat the grill to 500 degrees Fahrenheit. Add burgers, allowing to sear on one side for about 2 minutes, or until nice and charred. Flip burgers, cooking until internal cooking temperature registers at 160 degrees Fahrenheit. Remove from grill and allow to rest for at least 5 minutes before arranging.
Lemony Feta Tzatziki
- 1/4 cup Président® Fat-Free Crumbled Feta Cheese
- 1 cup Greek yogurt
- 1/2 cup shredded cucumber
- 1/2 cup fresh dill chopped
- 3 cloves garlic minced
- 1 tbsp freshly squeezed lemon juice
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- 1 pinch salt and freshly cracked pepper
Lemony Feta Tzatziki
- Set shredded cucumber in a mesh strainer over or bowl or the sink. Sprinkle lightly with salt which will draw out some of the liquid from the cucumber. Allow to drain for at least 15 minutes, and then press the cucumber to remove as much liquid as possible.
- Add the drained cucumber to a medium bowl. Add remaining ingredients. Stir to combine.
To Serve
- 2 hamburger buns, pitas, or sandwich thins
To Serve
- Spread Lemony Feta Tzatziki on your hamburger bun, pita, or sandwich thin. Top with the lamb burger. Enjoy!
