Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

1 cup mayonnaise
1/2 cup sour cream
4 ounces good quality feta cheese
1 tablespoon red wine vinegar
1/2 small clove garlic, grated
2 teaspoons dried oregano
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 pounds good quality ground lamb
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
1/2 teaspoon dried mint
3/4 teaspoon smoked sea salt (large crystals - if using fine salt cut this amount in 1/2)
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
4 slices mozzarella cheese
4 good quality kaiser rolls or hamburger buns, split
Romaine lettuce
Sliced tomato
Sliced red onion
Mild banana pepper rings
English cucumber slices

Steps:

  • Add all ingredients for dressing to the bowl of a small food processor and pulse to combine. Remove to bowl and set aside to allow the flavors to blend.
  • Mix all the ingredients for burger patties (do not overwork). Divide the meat into 4 equal patties that are a little larger in diameter than the size of your bun, so that when they shrink after cooking they will fit the buns perfectly.
  • Heat a grill pan, cast iron skillet, or outdoor grill to medium heat. Once the grill is hot, cook burgers about 3 to 4 minutes per side, or until desired doneness is reached. Do not overcook or the burgers will be dry.
  • Top each burger with mozzarella cheese during the last 2 to 3 minutes of cooking.
  • Lightly toast the cut sides of your buns either on the grill or under the oven broiler.
  • Spread some of the feta dressing on the bottom half of each bun, top with a burger patty, romaine lettuce, sliced tomato, red onion, banana pepper rings, and sliced cucumber. Spread some feta dressing on the top halves of the buns and cover the burgers.
  • Grab lots of napkins! If you've done it right you'll need them! Enjoy - and maybe even go back for seconds! (Yes - it's that good!)

I'm allergic to lamb, so I used ground beef instead. The burgers were still really good.

These burgers were really good, but I think I'll try a different bun next time.

I'm not a fan of tzatziki sauce, so I used a different sauce instead. The burgers were still delicious.

These burgers were a bit dry. I think I'll add some more olive oil to the lamb mixture next time.

This burger was a bit too salty for my taste. I think I'll use less feta cheese next time.

I was a bit hesitant to try this recipe because I'm not a huge fan of lamb. But I'm so glad I did! The lamb was cooked perfectly and the flavors were amazing. I'll definitely be making this again.

This burger was a hit at my last BBQ! The flavors of the lamb, feta, and tzatziki sauce were incredible. I'll definitely be making this again.
