Ingredients
Scale
- 1 lb ground lamb
- 2 cloves garlic (or 1 giant one)
- 2 Tablespoons fresh dill, chopped
- 1 Tablespoon fresh mint, chopped
- 3 ounces of crumbled Feta Cheese
- 1 lemon (You will need the zest and the juice)
- Serve with
- Pita Bread
- Lettuce Wraps
- Thinly sliced cucumber, tomatoes, red onions
- Tzatiki
Instructions
- Preheat Grill to about 400 degrees.
- Zest and Juice your Lemon. I like to use this Microplane Grater to get a good zest! And this Squeezer to get a good juice!
- Combine all ingredients. I do this with my hands (be sure to take off your rings before hand!)
- Shape into 4 patties.
- Grill for 4 minutes one side, 5 minutes the other for Medium Rare. If you want to see NO pink on the inside, do 6 minutes per side.
- Serve with homemade (and easy!) Tzatziki.
- I like to eat mine in lettuce wraps. The hubs prefers his in in a Pita! We both layer thinly sliced cucumbers, and tomatoes. If you can handle raw red onions, those would be a great addition as well! Note, the nutrition info below is for 3 large lettuce leafs and does not account for the pita. (I’ll save my carbs for a glass of wine, thank you!)
Notes
Note: if you do not have a grill, you can pan sauté as well. I like to get a NON-STICK pan to med-high heat. Place in a burger. Cover with a plate to press the burger down and allow to cook. Cook about 6 minutes. Flip, remove plate and cook until your desired temp. If you are crazy lazy/nervous about doing these as burgers. Just throw all the ingredients into the pan (but for the feta). Saute until done. Add in feta until melty = BOOM!
