Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound Ground lamb
- 1 cup Fresh spinach
- 1 cup Feta cheese, crumbled
- 2 cloves Garlic, minced
- 0.25 cup Red onion, finely chopped
- 0.25 cup Breadcrumbs
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon Dried oregano
- 1 tablespoon Olive oil
- 4 pieces Burger buns
- Optional toppings (lettuce, tomato, tzatziki)
Instructions
In a large skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil over medium heat. Add the spinach and sauté for 1-2 minutes until wilted. Let it cool slightly, then finely chop and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the ground lamb, chopped spinach, crumbled feta cheese, minced garlic, red onion, breadcrumbs, egg, salt, black pepper, and oregano. Mix gently but thoroughly with your hands until well-combined.
Divide the mixture into four equal portions and shape them into burger patties about 3/4-inch thick.
Preheat a grill or stovetop skillet over medium-high heat. Lightly grease the grill or skillet with a bit of olive oil to prevent sticking.
Cook the lamb burgers for about 4-5 minutes per side, or until they are browned and cooked to your desired level of doneness. Use a meat thermometer if necessary (145°F for medium-rare or 160°F for medium).
Toast the burger buns lightly on the grill or in a toaster.
Assemble the burgers by placing each patty on the bottom half of a bun. Add optional toppings like lettuce, tomato, and tzatziki sauce if desired, then top with the other half of the bun.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
