GREEK-STYLE FETA AND OLIVE SPREAD (FOR BURGERS, STEAKS AND FISH)



Greek-Style Feta and Olive Spread (For Burgers, Steaks and Fish) image

This spread is so good on grilled steaks, pork and turkey burgers, I use it all the time topped on my salmon patties (recipe #155183) in between a bun. You can use it on just about anything! All the ingredients should be adjusted to taste. Plan ahead this needs to chill for a minimum of 5 hours, overnight is even better, this get stronger with chilling time, so be careful with the fresh garlic, it can be too overpowering in this spread if you make the mistake of adding in to much while making it... start with adding in a small amount and chill for about 3 hours if you feel that you want more garlic flavor then mix in more. You can add in salt, but the feta and olives are very salty.

Feta & Tomato-Topped Greek Burgers image

Provided by pammyowl

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 25m

GREEK TURKEY BURGERS W FETA/RED PEPPERS



GREEK TURKEY BURGERS W FETA/RED PEPPERS image

Categories     Sandwich     turkey     Low Fat     Backyard BBQ     Healthy

Yield 4 sandwiches

Number Of Ingredients 24

2 Spanish or sweet onions, cut into thick 1/4" slices
Extra virgin olive oil
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt (1/4 tsp table salt)
freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 pound ground turkey (or ground chicken, pork, beef or lamb)
1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh parsley
1 garlic clove, finely minced
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
4 kaiser rolls or hamburger buns
Roasted Pepper and Feta Spread (below)
/2 Spanish or sweet onion, thickly sliced
Extra virgin olive oil
Kosher salt and cracked black pepper
1 cup crumbled feta cheese
2 fire-roasted red bell peppers, home roasted or store-bought, cut into strips
2 pepperoncini (canned pickled yellow peppers), sliced
1/2 teaspoon dry Greek oregano
2 pinches ground coriander
2 pinches ground cumin
4 small picked sprigs parsley
1/2" thick slice of tofu
mound of sprouts

Steps:

  • 1. Heat a grill pan or frying pan over medium-high heat. Brush the onion slices with oil and grill/saute the onions until very tender, flipping the slices halfway. The longer you cook, the sweeter the onion will taste. Take 1/4 of the onions and finely chop. Reserve the remaining onions as rings to top the burger. 2. In a large bowl, combine the chopped onions, salt, pepper, ground turkey, Dijon mustard, coriander, parsley, garlic and cumin. Use your hands to mix thoroughly. Divide the mixture in 4 and shape into patties. With your fingers press down gently in the center of each patty to make a slight depression in the middle (the center of patty rises during cooking, so making a depression in middle will ensure an even patty). 3. Heat a grill pan or frying pan over high heat. Brush the burger with a little bit of olive oil. When the pan is hot, grill the patties for 2 minutes. Flip the patties and grill another 2 minutes. Turn the heat to medium-low, cover the pan and cook until the patties are cooked through, about 3-5 minutes, depending on how thick your patties are, what protein you use and how done you like your burgers. I suggest cooking pork, turkey and chicken all the way through. 4. Serve with the burger buns, Roasted Pepper and Feta Spread and the reserved grilled onions, tofu and sprouts.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality feta cheese for the best flavor.
  • If you don't have panko breadcrumbs, you can use regular breadcrumbs or crushed crackers.
  • Be careful not to overmix the burger mixture, as this can make the burgers tough.
  • Cook the burgers over medium heat to prevent them from burning.
  • Serve the burgers on buns with your favorite toppings, such as lettuce, tomato, onion, and tzatziki sauce.

Conclusion:

Greek feta burgers are a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for any occasion. They are packed with flavor and can be customized to your liking. Whether you serve them on buns with your favorite toppings or enjoy them as a main course, these burgers are sure to be a hit. So next time you're looking for a new and exciting burger recipe, give Greek feta burgers a try!
