Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Lean ground beef (93% lean)
- 0.25 cup Red onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 teaspoon Ground oregano
- 1 teaspoon Dried dill
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 4 Whole wheat burger buns
- 4 Lettuce leaves
- 4 Tomato slices
- 0.25 cup Crumbled feta cheese
- 0.25 cup Nonfat plain Greek yogurt
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Olive oil
- 0.25 teaspoon Garlic powder
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground beef, chopped red onion, minced garlic, parsley, oregano, dill, salt, and black pepper. Mix until just combined, being careful not to overwork the meat.
Divide the beef mixture into 4 equal portions and shape into patties about ½ inch thick.
Preheat a grill or stovetop grill pan over medium-high heat. Lightly coat with nonstick cooking spray, if needed.
Cook the burger patties for 4-5 minutes per side, or until they reach an internal temperature of 160°F and no longer appear pink in the center.
While the burgers are cooking, make the feta aioli. In a small bowl, combine crumbled feta cheese, Greek yogurt, lemon juice, olive oil, and garlic powder. Stir until smooth and creamy. Set aside.
Toast the whole wheat burger buns lightly on the grill or in a toaster, if desired.
Assemble the burgers by placing a lettuce leaf on the bottom half of each bun, followed by a cooked burger patty, a slice of tomato, and a dollop of feta aioli. Top with the remaining half of the bun.
Serve immediately, and enjoy your flavorful Greek-style burgers!
