Greek Turkey Burgers with Tzatziki Sauce Recipe
Healthy. Filling. Greeky. All good things.
Ingredients
- FOR THE SAUCE:
- 6 oz. non-fat Greek yogurt
- ¼ cup chopped cucumber (I peeled mine, as well)
- 2 Tbsp chopped red onion
- 1 tsp dried dill weed
- 2 tsp fresh lemon juice
- FOR THE MEAT:
- 1 lb ground turkey
- 1 cup crumbled feta cheese
- 1/3 cup chopped red onion
- 1 tsp dried dill weed
- ½ tsp salt
- ¼ tsp pepper
- 1 clove garlic, finely chopped
- 4 whole wheat hamburger buns, for serving
- Lettuce/Tomato, for serving
Directions
- TO MAKE THE SAUCE:
- Mix all ingredients together in a small bowl. Refrigerate for at least one hour to allow flavors to meld. The longer it sits, the better it will taste, so you can even make this a day in advance.
- TO MAKE THE BURGERS:
- Heat a grill/Grill pan to medium high.
- Mix all ingredients for the meat in a large bowl and form into four patties.
- Place on the grill and cook 8 â 10 minutes, flipping halfway through, until meat is no longer pink on the inside.
- Place on buns and serve by dividing mixture into 1/4s on top of each patty. Garnish with extra tomato slices or lettuce.
