Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams lean ground beef
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley
- 100 grams crumbled feta cheese
- 2 cloves minced garlic
- 1 teaspoon dried oregano
- 1 teaspoon sea salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 8 pieces whole wheat slider buns
- 1 cup arugula
- 1 large sliced tomatoes
- 0.5 cup Tzatziki sauce
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, combine the lean ground beef, parsley, feta cheese, minced garlic, dried oregano, sea salt, and black pepper. Mix gently until all ingredients are well incorporated.
Divide the mixture into 8 equal portions and shape each portion into a small patty, about the size of a slider bun.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
Once the oil is hot, add the beef patties to the skillet. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are browned on the outside and cooked to your desired level of doneness.
While the sliders are cooking, slice the tomatoes thinly and prepare the whole wheat buns by slicing them in half if they are not pre-sliced.
Once the patties are done, remove them from the skillet and let them rest for a minute.
Assemble the sliders by placing a handful of arugula on the bottom half of each bun. Place a beef patty on top of the arugula, followed by a slice of tomato.
Top each slider with a spoonful of Tzatziki sauce and cover with the top half of the bun.
Serve immediately and enjoy the Mediterranean flavors!
